I use a 1440p (2560x1440) monitor, but when I run HDMI from my GTX 780 to the DS7500 and then to my monitor my max available res. is only 1080p. Help?

I think your hookup is bass ackwards. The audio should run via ARC or Audio Return Channel from your monitor to the Somy headphone. I believe this is done via Toslink.

That would depend on a couple of things. To be best of my knowledge, I think HDMI 1.3 supports higher res, but that means the GTX 780 has to be outputting HDMI 1.3, and the Sony as well. And even if they both do, your monitor's HDMI port has be able to accept resolutions higher than 1080p. What happens when you plug the HDMI cable directly from your GTX780 into the your monitor? If that gives you 2560x1440, then the problem is the DS7500. If you only get 1080p with direct connect from GTX780, I would assume the problem is with your monitor's HDMI port.

when the DS7500 is on, you will only be able to use resolutions supported by the headphones, and those don't go any higher than 1920x1080... unless the device is off, then a pass through signal could use your monitor's higher resolution settings.

HDMI resolution is fixed as 1920x1080 only per its standard. if you use other resolutions; use different interface.

Do not use an HDMI cable. :) Doing so will only get you 1080, which is not the full resolution (1440) that this monitor is capable of. If you're happy using HDMI at 1080 then you might as well buy a 1080 monitor for half this price. You'll definitely want to use DVI or DisplayPort to take advantage of the full resolution. If you have trouble reading the screen then you can adjust that in Windows / Mac OS X.

HDMI cables will support the resolution of 2560x1080 natively. It will also cap out at 60fps so it'll match the refresh rate of the monitor as well.

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.

I had my monitor set for 1920x1080 (HDMI) with no problem. Anything above that is unknown.

It may be the monitor you have plugged in :) mine caps out at 1680 x 1050 ///// try plugging it into a hdmi tv :)

I connected mine with dual-link DVI cable and it works fine. To get the high resolution it does need to be dual-link. You can tell if it by looking to see if it has pins in all 24 locations. Regular DVI will not support the high resolution. You can also use HDMI. It depends on the monitor and the graphics card what it supports. Hope this helps.

I think it did come with a high end dvi so you can get 1600 pixels. The 1600 pixels only comes in on the dvi according to the Dell manual. The HDMI only goes up to 1200 pixels. That may change on new models perhaps because I am pretty sure that HDMI is 1600p capable. I know some of the new TVs have a higher resolution than this monitor too by the way, and they use HDMI I would presume.

I'm running 4 @ 1920x1080 and all are 24 inches and up with very few issues. Make sure your power supply is at the upper end of the spectrum, I have to unplug my monitors when I reboot which is a little irritating, but it seems related to the power supply and nothing else. Also pay close attention to the listed issues with DVI / HTMI / Display Port.

I'm using mine with an AMD W7000 graphics card. The only time I get 2560x1600 is with a straight through Display Port cable. Any otherl configuration, even with the best adapters (even DVI-D), gets 1920x1080 displayed. No disc required with Windows 7 or Windows Server 2012 R2. After a couple of boots it picked the device itself. Not sure how many though as I was installing all the other drivers required and those needed a lot of reboots.

Note that you need the DualLink Mini DisplayPort adapter to get the full 2560x1440 resolution. If you try using just the basic Mini DisplayPort adapter, your available resolutions will max out at 1080p.

I've connected my laptop to the TV via HDMI and achieved 1080P. What is the maximum resolution on your laptop? Check your graphics settings. Are you duplicating, extending or using only the TV as the monitor? These settings will determine what resolution you can achieve via HDMI.

No... You have to use something like DisplayPort in order to get full resolution . That's what I use... Works great... In my situation though, my video card has Display-port outputs. If yours does not, I'm not sure if you can achieve full res.

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

Mr. Berwick, Thank you for your question. The max supported resolution for this card according to manufacture spec are : DVI port is 2560x1600, Dsiplay port is 4096x2160, HDMI is 4096x3112. Please feel free to contact if you have any other question.

Your computer's resolution is only limited by the video card and the current monitor. 1920 x 1080 is really just a standard HDTV resolution (16:9) but most all widescreen *computer* (monitor) resolutions are 16:10, so 1920 x 1200 is perfectly normal and since you already have a 1920 wide res to start with, the option to expand to 1920 x 1200 *should* show up as soon as the new monitor is connected and detected by the computer. If it does not, then you might indeed have to upgrade your video card IF you really want to use the max res. For example, my original resolution was 1024 x 768 (4:3) on my previous monitor. With the T260HD, I was able to change to 1600 x 1200 (also 4:3) which, on the T260HD, does have "black bars" on the side. I suspect it is simply because my video card is outdated that I cannot get the max res and so I should get one that definitely has widescreen capabilities, but it has not been that important lately so I've just not done it yet. I hope that helps! XD PS. Also, when you have the max res of a 16:10 screen, ie 1920 x 1200, you will always have "black bars" on the top and bottom of proper 1080 (or any 16:9) footage when displayed correctly. That can bother some ppl, so it depends on what you want to use the monitor for mainly, ie if you plan to watch a lot of shows on it or just for computer stuff. Altho of course, depending on your media player (on the comp) or when you are watching tv, you will also have the options to crop or zoom the picture which can fill the screen if you don't mind losing the edges as long as you can escape the "black bars". Just some food for thought ;P

Nope bs 1600x900 res. I told them about it I bought two of these and both were not 1080p
