    Quick suggestion for Nvidia card with mini DP.

    Hi xolera, thanks for the reply. I guess I wasn't too clear. My Video card now has a mini DP, and it actually plays well with the Apple Cinema display. My dilemma is running Tekla Structure with a Radeon base GPU. That's the reason I wanted to switch to a Nvidia base card to see if that...

    Quick suggestion for Nvidia card with mini DP.

    Hey guys, and gals. I need a quick suggestion for a Nvidia base video card that has a mini DP. Reason for the mini display port is because I have a Apple Cinema 27 that only has the mini DP. I have a pretty old Radeon HD68x base card right now that I'm using for this monitor, plus another...

    My build - any comments/concerns/compliments?

    I have the storm scout and the Sapphire HD6850 (product dimension is listed at 14.8 x 9.8 x 4 inches), it fits nicely in my case. The Sapphire 6950 you've mentioned have the same dimension as the Sapphire HD6850. So, I don't see any reason why it wont fit. Yes, I agree that the case is a bit...

    Thanks everyone for all the help! My system is up and running without a single hiccups from start to finish. I'm loving the speed of the SSD. Such a joy culling with LR now, and photo editing is a fantastic. I know I wasn't able to stick to the suggested parts on most, but having a starting...

    What 27" to get?

    I have the 27" ACD that I use for photo editing (LR/CS5), and I can't say enough on how good this monitor is. A bit pricey, but I personally think it's worth it. Yes, the glare is there, but doesn't really bother me or affects the quality/clarity of the photo's that I'm editing. The only bad...

    Can the Apple Cinema Displays work with a PC?

    Oh, there's a trick to run the applecontrolpanel.exe without having a bootable disc. It's actually one of the thread I've started here weeks ago. One of the guys actually found a solution about creating an account, and running it. Look for the thread, and you should be golden. It worked for me.

    Can the Apple Cinema Displays work with a PC?

    Yes, it works. I have my Dell XPS 15z connected to it, and it works like a charm. I'm not quite as lucky finding a video card that has a mini displayport to put in my newly build system. Just recently found a card that actually has one (Sapphire Toxic I believe). I just got it today, so I'm...

    Hey guys, now that I know I can use a full displayport, can someone suggest me a nice card to push the ACD. The one Danny suggested is actually from CircuitCity, thru Amazon.com. I rather not buy it from CircuitCity. Thanks.

    Hey, Tony, if they have a mini displayport, I'll be happy to get any of those card that you've mentioned. Well, I did more searching, and what do you know. There is such cable, and it's available on Amazon.com...

    The link that Tony provided wont work in my case. I'm not sure if you're aware, but the cable on ACD is hardwired, and it's not something I can just replaced with another cable. If that was the case, believe me I would've change it already as the cable is too short anyway. The cable/adapter I...

    Noooooooooo! You gotta see the ACD in 2560x1440... :) Kiddin. Well, not really. The ACD blows away the other 3 monitors I have now. I thought my Dell XPS 15z 1080P display was, sweet, but connected to the ACD it's just mind blowing. Anyway, we'll see how this card performs. I should've gotten...

    Me too, but right now I'm pretty much building around the ACD. The card that Danny recommend only have the full displayport, and I can't find an adapter that will accept the mini displayport from the ACD. I need a female end to be able to plug the ACD. I even chat with Monoprice, and no such...
