    miniDP > DVI-D adapter: 2560x1600 @60HZ

    Beautiful story with an inspiring historical significance! I did not know that! :-) Very generous of you! Thanks. Indeed it will be much more expensive than buying one here. I think my options are clear now: either buy a (new/secondhand) usb powered active dual link adapter OR build another...

    miniDP > DVI-D adapter: 2560x1600 @60HZ

    After some research i found this adapter, which EXPLICITELY states that 1. it will work at 2560x1600 and 2. at 60HZ! https://www.startech.com/AV/Displayport-Converters/Mini-DisplayPort-to-DVI-Dual-Link-Active-Adapter-USB-Powered~MDP2DVID As a whipping 150$, are there any new cheap 10-50$...

    miniDP > DVI-D adapter: 2560x1600 @60HZ

    Awesome reply! Thanks now we're getting somewhere! The second one is 10 fold more expensive. 1. The first (10$) clearly states that it will work at 2560x1600 @60HZ. So i am curious what advantage the second (110$) brings compared to the first adapter? 2. I need miniDisplayPort, these are...

    miniDP > DVI-D adapter: 2560x1600 @60HZ

    Is it theoretically possible to achieve 60HZ signal at a resolition of 2560x1600 from a miniDisplayPort > DVI-D adapter? I ask this because I have tried THREE adapters one 8$, one 15$ and one 32$ and all three promised to go into resolutions of up to 4K @30HZ, and the latter promised...

    What new barebone to upgrade my i7 4770R?

    Your welcome! :) indeed nice. I myself was looking specifically into the tiny cubic models that disassembled can lie FLAT(!) for approx 500-700$.

    What new barebone to upgrade my i7 4770R?

    Many years ago i bought a Gigabyte BRIX-4770R, a QUADCORE powerhouse i7 that is still going strong... After that many new barebones from intel and gigabye appear to be all merely dualcore. Which New/To Be Released barebone will be a QUADCORE powerhouses that is worth upgrading to compared to...
