Hi guys,

I read a couple of online reviews about this monitor and I noticed that apparently this monitor does not come out with a DVI cable???

Can any of you that have maybe bought this OR who stock this product confirm this?

thanks.
 
It does have DVI ports but there is a problem with them so they dont supply you with the cable. Some work others don't, is its not an LCD to buy if you want wanting to use the DVI connectors.
 
I've read countless reviews on this monitor and not ONE review has stated it has "problems" on the DVI port. Could you please be a bit more clear as to what these problems are? I'm going to go to Incredible Connection in the morning and I'm going to check if they supply you with a DVI cable. If they do, and it works fine, then I'm going to come back here and accuse you of making false claims - which won't bode well with people wanting to buy components from you. So I hope for your sake you're 100% correct in your claims.

Yeah ... it comes with a DVI and the normal analog VGA cable in the box .... the problem is there are different DVI standards and some video cards are not compatible.

I'm sure my 7800GTX should be fine?

I looked at the DVI cable that came with my Samsung and from the pinouts above it is a DVI-D (Single Link) cable which my 6600GT unfortunately does not support.

Google seems to indicate the 7800GTX supports DVI-D ... suggest you check with your supplier or manufacturer of the card.
 
It DOES come with a DVI cable and it works absolutely brilliantly!!!

Person - I'd go read up on some more facts about LCDs and their manufacturers dude...you seem to be the kind of person that thumb-sucks excuses. I for one would NEVER buy anything from you...you seem very dodgy. Like a 2nd hand car-salesman....just without cars...stay away from me please. I've shot less dodgier things.
 
The 940BF comes with a standard VGA cable, and a DVI cable.

I'm currently running a 7600GT gfx card with my 940BF on the DVI cable.

It works...beautifully. ;)

I've seen 'em go for around 760 (Digital Planet), to nearer the 3k mark, but if you shop around, there's a deal to be had...for sure.

I got mine from PC International for 2,500. ;)

Ye, why does Person still post here, and/or why is he allowed to!?
He has only ever spread lies and screwed people over....
If I acted like that I would expect to be banned!
