I recently upgraded from one rig into another, but didnt have a GPU upgrade. So my new 3930k rig started with my old 280GTX. Last week, I finally upgraded to a Asus 6950HD DirectCU II. Then yesterday, I picked up a used 3007WFP for a good price. The owner gave me a single link DVI cord by accident.
Anyway, I have a spare dual link DVI cable, and I hooked up the new monitor but all I would get was 1280x800. I did a bunch of reading and saw this was an issue people often have when they don't have a dual link DVI cable, or improper drivers.
I removed all the Nvidia drivers, installed the proper 3007WFP driver, checked to make sure the ATI drivers were up to date. Nothing worked. I tried using the other DVI port on the 6950 because I believe only one of those are dual-link.
On a whim I put the GTX280 back in and without installing the drivers I got 1600x1200. After in the install for the GTX280 drivers I am getting 2560x1600 so I know the cable is good.
Any ideas? Obviously I'd prefer to get this fixed and be running the 6950...
