Hi Guys, I am looking at purchasing the triple head to go DP edition. I ran the compatabilty tool on a dell studio 17 which has the ATI mobility radeon HD 4650 1MB graphics card, and it came up ok. However it said it supported 3 x 1680x1050 @ 59Hz. The monitors I am looking at getting are Dell P2210 monitors that have an optimal res. of 1680x1050 @ 60Hz. Does this mean I cant get 3 x 1680x1050 resolution using the TH2GO DP edition with the Dell Studio 17 laptop and the Dell P2210 monitors. Will the Dell P2210 Monitors run at 1680x1050 @ 59Hz? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Riffraff,
As far as we know, all 60Hz monitors work at 59Hz no problem. Actually although the system may need a reported refresh rate of 59Hz, the panels may still be working at 60Hz... In any event, the 59Hz shouldn't be a problem - feel free to come back here and confirm, though ;)

Thanks Scavvenjahh. So are you saying the monitors should display 5040x1050 at both 59Hz and 60Hz?

Yes, it *shouldn't* make any difference.

Yep, Samsung 2233RZ (3D Ready) runs fine at 5040x1050 59Hz.

Is 1440 X 900 an acceptable res? I can save over 200.00 and have 3 bigger screens if so.

"Acceptable", what do you mean :?: (although I suspect you may be completely OT...)

Yes I am a supper noob. lol. I just seen a vid on this yesterday, so i signed u after being referred here to ask questions. I am asking is a 1440 x 900 comparable to a 1680 x 1050 res screen? Or if that resolution would even work. I could deal with shaving off an inch of screen or a bit lower res to save some money. If it cant be done, Im just going to have to cough up the extra cash.
