Resolution?
Answers:
Hiya Anasasisxenophontis,
The answer is 99.8% YES!! Contrary to popular belief Windows will NOT show display resolutions that exceed the laptop LCD screen's capability. As soon as you plug in your new monitor and boot up to Windows, the screen resolution slider in display properties will have changed to reflect the higher resolutions that the new monitor is capable of.
In fact the Go 7700 made by NVidia has a maximum screen resolution of exactly 2048 x 1536 @ 85Hz. That is why I did not use 100%. The kicker is the 85Hz part! I do not think the monitor is capable of this refresh rate and you may not get a picture at all; you might get a picture at 75Hz but at what cost, wavy lines, distortion, etc...
The native resolution of the HP LP3065 is 2048 x 1600 @ 60Hz. The frequency ranges for this monitor are 100Hz horizontal and 60Hz vertical, that is it, 60Hz is the limitation.
For verification you will need to actually call HP and ask because although the maximum screen resolution of the GO 7700 is very close to the native screen resolution of the HP, the frequency ranges do not match.
I hope this is clear because you do not want to operate that monitor at a different resolution then the native.
I would take my Acer down to the local BIG STORE and ask to see the monitor. They want you to buy the thing so they will let you hook up and see, free of charge.
GOOD LUCK!!
Beggars cant be choosy and I'll guess if I want =D
and besides I dont have to guess. Hell, I dont even have to know. I just have to use logic:
Is there an option on your present configured unit to use a resolution of 2560x1600?
If no: No.
If yes: Yes.
Logic being that your video card doesnt give a donkeys bollocks what resolution the User feels like using that day so long as it can support it: It doesnt care that 2560x1600 is a ridiculous resolution for a 15.4" screen: it does what its told.
If your answer was No however then thats probably because when Nvidia designed the card they had an idea what kind of displays the card would be running on - namely, Laptops.
And the HP LP3065 is a long, long stretch from even the largest 19" laptops that the Go 7700 is designed to operate for.
So my *guess* is that it will not. But if it does, then I pat you on the back but issue a note of warning about overheating the card.
But if you want absolute truth try plugging in a test monitor that is DVI compliant to see if the Go 7700 reacts in some unpredictable manner (like suddenly generating new resolution supports). Should matter what size of DVI monitor you try.
