Was this 1080 mode a limitation of your graphics card? I drove mine with a Matrox G400 Max (360MHz RAMDAC) and it was good for 1440p.



Most certainly yes. I can't recall which card I had the experience with, but around that time I upgraded from a G200 to a Geforce 2 Ti of some type, whichever it was, it was almost certainly not beefy enough a RAMDAC for it, and resulted in a ~43Hz interlaced mode. It was a rare enough occasion that I needed to run with a Y resolution of > 1280 that it wasn't a huge deal, but it physically hurt when I did. The viewsonic that I'd used previously to the FW900 had a more palatable interlaced mode.
