5760x1200 support?

Post by Amon Amarth »

I was wondering if this was possible. It would just seem strange that this nifty device wouldn't be able to support three monitors with a native resolution of 1920x1200. I'd appreciate any guidance.

The limitation of the Matrox TH2G is the fact it only has one output, a Duel Link DVI, and that can only push so much data down it, as a result the TH2G can't server resolutions higher then 5040x1050 because there isn't enough bandwidth on the Duel Link DVI port to support them.

I've just ordered a TripleHead2Go DisplayPort Edition and was wondering if that restriction still holds true...

Unfortunately, it does. :(
TH2G DP can output 5040@60Hz (while TH2G DE requires 59.xxxHz), but it doesn't support higher resolutions. I'm not sure of the exact reasons so maybe this limitation will eventually be addressed in a firmware update, but I wouldn't count on it.
