ojwb | so the "DVI Dual-Link Digital/Analogue" cable I ordered from dicksmith turns out to be DVI-D and single link according to the box (and the connectors if I read them right) | 02:03 |
---|---|---|
ojwb | it is DVI, so that's 1/3 | 02:03 |
mwhudson | disk smith's is a terrible place to buy cables | 02:07 |
mwhudson | trademe is more reliable ime :) | 02:07 |
chilts | ascent! | 02:08 |
G | or if you have PB Tech local, PB :) | 02:09 |
chilts | there is one around the corner from me in Wgtn | 02:10 |
G | for the most part, Trade Me is pretty good, but some of the descriptions leave a lot of doubt | 02:11 |
chilts | speaking of which, I might go there now | 02:11 |
ojwb | mwhudson: yeah, i wouldn't normally | 02:12 |
ojwb | ascent seemed to be out of stock of most of the cheaper DVI cables though | 02:12 |
ojwb | now i'm trying to find out if the computer and monitor actually support dual link, which doesn't seem to be documented anywhere | 02:12 |
ojwb | looking at wikipedia, for the supported resolutions it seems single link is fine | 02:27 |

snail | hi all | 20:53 |
ojwb | in case anyone cares, the single link dvi cable seems fine - looks like dual link is only needed for higher resolutions and/or bit depths than most monitors do | 20:58 |
chilts | morning | 21:01 |
chilts | that's twice I've said that | 21:01 |
chilts | an hour apart | 21:01 |
chilts | my short term memory is failing me | 21:02 |
