Picked up this cable Mini-Display port Female to Male Display Port locally to use with my Apple Active Mini-Display Port to DVI adapter.


very interesting ... thanks for that ... can you test more games ?

would be also good to test 5760 x 1200 if you can ... maybe it can handle 5040 x 1050 but not above ...

Got home for lunch and had the Dell package. Opened and it is as another poster claimed a Bizlink branded adapter.

I simply swapped out the Apple for the Bizlink and woke up my comp from a sleep and it worked without any reconfiguration. Just to make sure I then forced a reboot and same thing it just worked.

So it seams Eyefinity Drivers see no difference between my Apple or Bizlink Active DP (mini for apple) to DVI.

Both seem to work fine.

In reply to another poster I only have 3 1680x1050 monitors so I can't do better than 3x1 5040x1050.

LOL so I think the theory that the Dells are just firebrand Bizlinks may well be true! :p

Then you don't need an adaptor, I will swap the so-called 'Dell' for a TH2go! ;)

I've asked accell if theres any European distrubuters as the US one via bizlink wants $115 on top of the convertor just to ship and they pointed me here

http://kabeltje.com/accell-displayport-naar-dvid-dual-link-adapter-25cm-p-1628.html

I think they ship outside Holland but do we have a Dutch member that could translate and check out if they ship to Europe / Worldwide and the cost ?

I probably dont need one myself i've found a dell p2210 that should arrive tommorow but might be usefull for anyone else
(Holland) "Belgie, Luxemburg en Duitsland" only I am afraid :(

I sent them an email in English, IME the Dutch speak english a hell of a lot better than most englishmen!
I put in an order and when it got to 'select postage method' only local and those countries listed were available. It did let me put in NZ as an address but that is just a factor of the merchant software.
