Hello. I have just received a U2713HM monitor (from the Dell Outlet) and connected to my video card (ATI Radeon HD 5450 in a Dell Studio XPS 8100 desktop) with the included DVI cable. I am allowed to select the maximum resolution (2560 x 1440) but when I do so everything goes "fuzzy" and "pixelated" in white. If I lower the resolution to 1920 x 1080 then everything works fine.
In researching a little on my own, including a few similar issues posted here, I think my video card should certainly support 2560 x 1440 via the DVI port but that the cable that shipped with my monitor is single link instead of dual link (I verified this through another post in this forum that included a picture of what single and dual link connectors actually look like), and that dual link is required in order to get the max resolution to work correctly?
I'd appreciate if anyone could please confirm my assumption of what's going on and also that dual link DVI cables should come standard (through the Outlet also) with the U2713HM monitor given its resolution capabilities? Or is there any other issue I may not be aware of that could be causing this problem instead?
Thanks so much.
