Notes
:
DisplayPort #2 is restricted to modes 1900x1200 and lower when any display is connected to the VGA Port
If active, the VGA output is limited to modes of 1900 x 1200 and lower when any display is connected to the DisplayPort #2
Not a recommended configuration since the dP to dlDVI adapter is intended for dual link DVI monitors which have > 1920 x 1200
resolution
May not be an optimum configuration due to DP to VGA/DVI/HDMI adapter limitations; better configuration achieved by
swapping DisplayPort #1 and DisplayPort #2 connections.
The DP to VGA adapter is limited to resolutions of 1920 x 1200 and below
The DP to DVI and HDMI adapters are limited to resolutions of 1920 x 12 and 1920 x 1080, respectively
The DP to dlDVI adapter is intended to only be used with monitors that require dual link DVI source
