Please can you help me. I'm not very techie.
I've just purchased a Dell 7100 with a Radeon 5870.
I'm trying to connect this to a samsung 2053 monitor.
The native resolution is 1680 x 1050, however the nearest option I get is 1440 x 900.
The monitor has a VGA and DVi-d connection while the pc has hdmi and dvi-I connectors.
I'm connecting the two using a VGA cable rith a dvi-I adapter. Is this where I'm going wrong?. Should I be using a hdmi to dvi?
I've managed to select the 1680 x 1050 resolution, using the show all valid modes button, however that only displays in 30hz instead of 60 hz.
Please please help.
Thanks
