Graphics resolutions on Asus Radeon HD3850 x2 - Dual link display

[Reident]

Hey there,

I know this is going to sound like a daft question but my father has a Radeon HD 3850 x2 from ASUS and it's a great card, but we're coming stuck about the actual display resolution of the card; it being a dual link I'm some what confused as to how you would go about calculating the actual maximum display resolution of the Dual Link ports to 2 SEPERATE monitors not to one! My father is planning on running two 22" at a display resolution of 1920x1080 at 60hz and the maximum display resolution of the Dual link ports is 2560x1600 at 85hz.. I'm not sure whether the card will run both at 1920x1080@60hz, can anyone help me?!

Kind Regards,
James

2560x1600 is the maximum resolution per monitor that the GPU can display. You can run both of the monitors at 1920x1080. All you have to do is run the second monitor as an extended display.
