Does anyone know the max output resolution for the Displayport &amp; HDMI? I am looking at having a dual display setup at 2560x1440 WQHD.

I don't think there's such a thing as "max output" of a connection, rather, how much a graphics card can handle. The 4GB version (like mine) can definitely handle 1440p (I have 3840x1080p, which is dual 1920x1080p with the 4GB version). However, I only play on one of the screens at high/ultra on most games like BF4, Skyrim, Dota2, etc. I believe you will be able to play at 1440p at high, perhaps for Ultra you'll need a GTX 770 3GB+ SLI or a GTX 780Ti with 3GB+. If I were you, I would get this card, try to use it on your 1440p (I don't know what you intend to do: gaming, rendering stuff, etc) and, if you feel like it's not enough, buy another one and go SLI because this card is cool and quiet, can't hear it at all while gaming and never went beyond 60C as far as I can remember (I'm playing right now on Ultra at 51C).

To display 2560x1440, you need the dual link DVI cable (came with the monitor) and a dual link DVI to Thunderbolt/USB adapter. We got the Apple brand adapter and it works well.

I have dual HP S2331 23" LCD monitors with capability of 1920x1080 @60MHz. I have used this product for the past 6 years. I love it! I think the resolution is limited by your graphic card.

don't use hdmi. use mini displayport ("Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable" is like $5 on amazon) to display 2560 x 1080 perfectly.

I am using a second monitor, a 1600 x 900, works great. But I checked the settings and that is the highest number available. Hope that helps

I am trying to use it with Dell U3014 monitor and it is not showing 2560 x 1600 resolution. I have the driver already installed.any idea?

Greetings, You have 3 options for video output: HDMI, DVI or VGA (VGA will require the use of a DVI-to-VGA adapter). Best regards, MITXPC

I didn't have this issue, and I own two of the monitors. It may be defective, and I would also wonder which model you have (there are some S230HL models that have two DVI ports, some with two HDMI ports) as some were manufactured at earlier points in time. Personally, I'd return it and see if it was just a fluke.

So I have run into this before but I am not an expert. Some monitors will only accept 1080P or 720P. My source was 420P something like that so one of the monitors called it out of range. I was using a image one surgical camera that only had SDI output that once converted was 420 or 480P output and that didn't work with one of my Monitors. The TV monitor probably accepts a larger range of HDMI input. Scott

Yes, I am using one at work that is connected to 2 of 24" monitors at 1920 x 1200. I think I have one connected via DisplayPort and the other via HDMI. At work I am using a Dell PC M4700. I had some trouble with compatibility between Nvidia and DisplayLink driver (in addition to the 24" monitors I have a 30" connected to the laptop's DisplayPort output). I ended up going back a few revisions of the Nvidia driver to get things to work reliably. At home I have a Mac with also with 3 external monitors, except with the Mac I am driving them all with USB connections. I have a 30-inch connected to the HP 3005pr and two 1280 x 1024 smaller displays each connected via its own older USB to video Displaylink box.

I found it can run 2, 1 HDMI/26", 1080p @ 60 Hz and 1, DVI/23", 1080p @ 60 Hz smoothly. Currently running on a 42" and haven't tried anymore since I built a new rig.

The resolution can go up 1440p with the DUAL DVI connection. Make sure you are using the correct cable. IT should have been included when you purchased the item. You need a Dual-DVI cable. A normal DVI cable does not work. Any graphics card with a Dual-DVI port should work.

Not necessarily. You will need either a DVI-D cable or the Display Port cable to get the maximum resolution of 1440p, assuming you have a computer that supports a DVI-D or DP link.

I'm not quite sure, but I've heard there have been many problems achieving 120Hz with and HDMI cable. If I were you, however, I'd get display port, it's basically the future. Regardless of that, this monitor is very, very, nice. It's responsive, it looks beautiful, and was rather easy to setup. Definitely worth the price.

I bought one yesterday, had one monitor in the DVI, one monitor running on the HDMI with the included HDMI/DVI adapter and the Surface Pro 2 monitor was also available. Just for kicks, I plugged an HMDI/Mini Display Port adapter into the port on the Surface Pro 2 and it also sent video to that screen. All said, I had 3 external monitors and the Surface display all running different things at the same time. All displays were at 1920 x 1080 resolution.

Dear Susan, I just tried it and I don't think so. I have this dock driving a 2560x1600 display through the display port. There is an HDMI port left over. Just for you I hooked up a 1080p display through the HDMI. I couldn't get the dock to detect or talk to the HDMI display until I disconnected the display port display. Bottom line, one display, unless you jump through the hoops of the first answer.

I have found that the display port gives the greatest picture in my experience so far (about 3 months). I have tested all 3, albeit the dvi was coming from hdmi port on my computer.
