Hey guys,
After spending 4-5 hours on the net I am still confused as to the current situation with regards to driving the high end 30" monitors such as Dell 3008WFP / Dell U3011.
As I understand it, 2560 x 1600 can only be achieved through the Dual Link-DVI or Displayport interfaces. HDMI, VGA, and all other interfaces will not achieve 2560 x 1600, correct?
What about HDMI 1.4, which I am seeing on new laptops? I heard it support resolutions far greater than 2560 x 1600... are there 30" monitors that support this?
In my searches for a laptop, I have not yet come across any that have Dual-Link DVI. I hear it is a very rare interface for a laptop to have. I have found a number with "mini-Displayport" but I have read of people having a ton of issues trying to use adapters to get this to work with the high end 30's at 2560 x 1600.
What are my options? Who is actually using a laptop with a 30" at 2560 x 1600 who can advise me? What should I do?
Many thanks in advance
