Top Resolution from T61p + Advanced Mini-Dock via DVI

#1 Post by Mr. Goodbar » Mon Mar 09, 2009 5:17 pm

It *looks* like the advanced mini-dock (model 2504) has a dual-link DVI-D output - 3 rows of 8 pins. Is that right? Can I drive a 1920x1200 or 2560x1600 LCD via the DVI output from the mini-dock with a T61p (NVIDIA Quadro FX 570M)? Anyone doing this already? ; )

Thanks

Yup, no problem here. My T61p at work is running a 1920 x 1200 display in the lab, and my office monitor does 2560 x 1600.

Great news! Thanks for your reply. I assume the screens look good - no ghosting with text?

No quality issues with me. It could vary with different monitors & stuff, though.
