[/ QUOTE ] use the code tags if you want. having to put the periods in is a pain in the ass. with the code tags, spaces actually show up as spaces i got at least 15 bids for them so there is a market. i don't even know if i want to sell them anymore. seems like i'm going to have to spend $1000+ in addition to the monitors. could get 2 more 2001FP's for the same price. i got a few good offers though anyway i think this idea is dumb, but it would be good if we had a 2+2 market. no way that would fly though |

Re: Playing Poker on a 30\" Monitor
Josh,
I did a little searching on Newegg.com and found video cards that support 2560x1600 resolution starting at $95.00. Of course they up quite a bit higher than that, but there are several options under $200. Here is the NEWEGG link for the page I found. These are PCI Express X16 cards. There are 14 choices. You should be able to get an idea for here. |

The monitor has dual DVI so you can plug in multiple sources, and switch between them. |

[/ QUOTE ] There seems to be a spot of confusion here with Dual DVI (two single-link DVI connectors - a lot of VGA cards have this), and Dual-link DVI, required to do a resolution of 2560x1600. Take a look at wikipedia on DVI here. Also on this wikipedia page, the awesome IBM 3820x2400 quad-dvi flat panel [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Only 22 inch, so probably a bit much for multi-tabling. Also quite expensive. There are not too many VGA cards supporting Dual-Link DVI right now, the ones I know of are the Nvidia 78xx series PCIe cards, and the top end Matrox cards. I think the new ATi 1xxx series PCIe cards do also, but I've not seen one of those yet. Whilst having Dual DVI ports, the Nvidia 7800GT/GTX only have one port that is capable of dual-link, therefore to run a pair of these new 30" Dells you will need two expensive VGA cards and an SLI motherboard to fit them. dave. |

Re: Playing Poker on a 30\" Monitor
Some of the cards which support 2560x1600 resolution are not listed in that link.
This is the cheapest one that I've found on Newegg's website: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814142053 It does have dual DVI but like the other guy said I dont believe you need dual DVI to hook up this monitor. This monitor is going to be a beauty. However I do have reservations about spending $1500+ on a monitor and then having to spend another several hundred on a video card just so I can utilize the max resolution. |
