Connecting fury x DP to 1440p qnix dvi-d

[Sohaltang]

What cable so I need? Pulled my 780 to classy and installed the fury x. Just realized I have no adapter. The dual link cables are 140$. What else will work? 1440p @120hz

Unfortunately, there isn't any adapter I know of that will convert DP to DVI-D at that pixel rate (1440p@120hz so over 400Mhz at 8-bit). The fastest active adapter ($100 ones) are limited by DP 1.1 so max pixel rate at 360Mhz at 8-bit color I think. You'll need a card that has DVI-D built in (980ti or Asus Fury).

well it depends if the display port on that card can pass dvi signal over the port. If so you can just use this cable.

I have an Xstar with Fury X. Most I can get out of my active DP to DVI adapter is 75hz @ 1440p before the dongle crashes.

I get 96hz out of it with native DVI

This is the one I have which is supposedly AMD certified for Eyefinity and one of the best ones.

That is really super lame. The 780ti classy can already push over 60fps in most games. I bought the fury x to get closer to 120 fps... Guess I'll go back to the 780ti and sell the fury x epic fail AMD and me for not doing my homework

yeah I didnt agree with them dropping it yet either but yeahh....

I just use the X-Star with my Nvidia rig now.....I want to go 4k gysnc or freesync but can't decide yet so gonna wait till that all settles itself out.

I ended up moving my AMD rig to LivingRoom gaming duty and just use VSR supersampling on my 1080p tv so as not to waste the Fury X power

I do have a very nice 4k TV.. But no HDMI 2.0 on this card. Grr.

How much of an improvement do you feel it is over native 1080p?
I feel like native 1080p isn't enough for me after seeing 4k screens downsampled, but maybe I just really want to upgrade. I wish AMD enabled VSR support so I could at least see how higher downsampled resolutions looked.

Its a big enough improvement that its worth the performance hit when playing on a fixed 60hz TV IMO. I wouldnt give up frames for it on the desktop though.

I created a post on this in the display's section months ago.

essentially active DP adapters are very hit or miss at 1440P @ 60hz., forget going higher.

THat's part of the reason I went with a 980 TI. I like my Overlord monitor and I don't wanna drop 600+ on a new monitor.

I don't have a desktop setup my main rig is for TV so that helps.

I feel crazy saying 1080p isn't enough and I need 4k vsr at a minimum, but it really feels that way.

Even just 1440p I like the iq a lot better. It feels like vsr really is a necessity for big screen gaming if you don't have a 4k display.

Anyone have luck finding a DP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0 that will support 4K at 60hz? I could move the PC to the living room where I have the 65 inch top tier 4k set.

 

[hawtdawg]

This is why I went with 980ti's over Fury X's

Club 3D is apparently developing one and they say it will be available in October, sorry I know that's not much help right now.
