DisplayPort to DVI Video Adapter Converter Reviews
| 53 of 63 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: DisplayPort to DVI Video Adapter Converter (Electronics) I bought this to run 3 monitors on an ATI 5770. I thought I could use a passive adapter since I did not need dual-link DVI on the monitor I was connecting it to (since it was only 1920x1200). However, it turns out that you NEED an ACTIVE ADAPTER if you want to run 3 monitors. Yes, this will work if you want to run two monitors but in order for the ATI 5770 to be able to output to 3 monitors, one must be NATIVE DisplayPort and it seems that a passive adapter is not considered "native" because when using a passive adapter, it does not actually output a native DisplayPort signal. To convert a native DisplayPort signal to DVI, an active adapter is required.Additional info: It seems the 5000 series cards have two RAMDACs so they can only output two signals that require a RAMDAC. A native DisplayPort signal does not require a RAMDAC. Because of the two RAMDAC limitation, the only way to get three monitors is to use a native DisplayPort signal because it doesn't require a RAMDAC...

I highly recommend this if you want to use a large monitor but don't like the limitations of the VGA port. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful By Grejam (US) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: DisplayPort to DVI Video Adapter Converter (Electronics) My work supplied Lenovo T500 has a Display Port which this works fine with. They seem to be one of the few companies that use DP. Nice resolution. Otherwise I can't have two external screens. |
