    Question 1080p@144Hz displayport or hdmi to dual link dvi-d

    All cable adapters (passive) to dual DVI-D are guaranteed to run at 60 fps tops, not matter what they say. It's funny in how many ways they hide this fact in the details. The converter (active) I bought, if I drew the lucky ticket, might run at 120/144 fps which is my monitor's refresh. At least...

Supposedly I can spend 10 times more on a displayport to dual dvi-d, and will render at 144 Hz. A new monitor is 100 times more expensive than the adapter... I made my peace that 60...

    Question 1080p@144Hz displayport or hdmi to dual link dvi-d

    Hello I need to preserve my XL2411T monitor's capacity to run in 1080P@144Hz. That is only possible through its dual link dvi-d port Alternatively if adapter too expensive, I can live with 1080P@60Hz if the cable is much cheaper. Internet sais "HDMI 1.4 can support up to 144Hz at 1920×1080"...
