Hello, I just bought an hd monitor what do I need to achieve 1080 hd video with this computer, or does it already come with what I need?

The unit has a display port video option which can be converted to HDMI using an adapter/converter..Thanks

Hi David, I don't know the direct (easy) answer to your question about a HD monitor with the Dell OptiPlex 960 with Windows 7 Professional. I went into the System Information and clicked on Display. I have an Intel(R) 4 Series Internal Chipset. Then I did a Google search on that name and it brought up the specific Intel support site... http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/highlights/graphics/4m. I'm quite sure that following this approach will provide you with an answer, as the Intel support for this item was over whelming. Go luck! Ed Hobbs, Houston, TX

At least a 2.3 duo (2) processors an HDMI ,I would buy this if I were you and everything works

As you get into the realm of high definition video you will definitely be pushing the limits of your computer. any details that you can provide regarding graphics card CPU etc. would help isolate the problem

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

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

Here is a video that I took. It is recorded at 720P. I didn't want to bother with 1080P because I don't think it would have made that much difference and would just chew through hard drive space faster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tz7ZmTy87Vk

So while HD4000 is more than capable of displaying 2560x1440 the screen doesn't use the faster implementation of HDMI. This means that you can only display full resolution at 30HTz instead of the standard 60. From experience this feels very fuzzy and probably not worth the trouble. 1080P runs fine on HDMI but to get full res you need either dual-dvi or displayport. EDIT: After doing some reading I realized I gave some incorrect data. The screen is speced to be able to run HDMI1.4 which is good enough to run full resolution. If you are using a computer with HDMI1.3 you will be stuck at 30HTz like I explained above.

DVI video port gives you digital signal capable of 2560x1200 or higher resolution. What else HD do you need? HDMI? Most likely you can use DVI-&gt;HDMI dongle

No HDMI cable in my box, just DisplayPort and DVI. I used my own HDMI cable with an HP laptop and have it working fine at 2560x1440. HDMI is not limited to 1080 as one reply states.

Just get an HDMI cable. Go HDMI from TV to Cable box. That will do 1080i video as well as audio.

No, just video. You can create 1080 screen grabs if you only need small images.

This monitor is (full HD - 1080) and I use Geforce GTX780ti graphic card in my computer but you can use any graphic cards.

I couldn't tell, my monitor doesn't support 1080p! In the end I sent it back and bought a 75ft VGA cable and a new 1080p monitor for the same price.

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.

Yes, I have, that's why I bought it. A few things. There aren't any DVI ports so you'll have to connect either RGB or HDMI. My video card only has DVI ports so I had to get a DVI-HDMI connector. Also, I have played with the adjustments a lot. My nvidia settings report the native resolution being 1920x1080, but it's actually 1366x768. Anything higher or lower and the text looks really crappy, blurry and whatnot. This is when you connect it via HDMI. To tell you the truth, it's not too bad, I have only had it a couple of weeks as well and I am still adjusting it. Haier's website is no help though.
