Thx for the reply Jean,

Reading that thread it starts very negative but there seems to be a light at
the end of the tunnel.
Consensus is that 6800gt cards are capable of outputting 1600x1200 via DVI
out but that there are some issues with non-standard/widescreen resolutions
that are driver related (and can be solved).

regards,

Louis

Hi All,

I'm thinking about upgrading my ATI8500 to an Albatron Geforce 6800GT.

One thing that I am not certain about is widescreen support via DVI.

The reason I bought my current ATI was the fact that it could drive my
Silicon Graphics 1600sw flatpannel at it's native 1600x1024 resolution
(@60Hz)

Can anyone confirm if the 6800GT supports wide-screen resolutions up to
1600x1024 ?

Thx,

Louis
