i thought it can go both ways?

correct me if im wrong though

Cheap 1080P 144hz monitor?

My monitor is flickering with DP to DP...

Dell U2312HM A00 September 2012 built, Asus EAH6970...

Its been working fine with DVI but then i change to DP this week...
Anyone having the same problem ?

one way from the GC only...

Thinking of changing my 7 years old samsung lcd monitor although its still going strong, so I'm thinking of Dell U2414H @ rm8xx, still worth to get or get the newer model?

wrong thread

Colour accuracy cannot eyeball. You need to calibrate using a colorimeter.

PC or notebook? What graphics card do you have? If it cannot support 2560 x 1440 at 60Hz, then your HDMI from your graphics card (and also possibly your cable) is less than version 1.3 which is old. Either that or you're trying to run at extended distance.

Suggest you upgrade your graphics card if it's a PC or a new HDMI cable if it does not support version 1.3. A cheap graphics card already can have almost all the necessary connections you want. The time and effort to hunt down for a convertor that MIGHT work sometimes not worth it and probably as expensive as a graphics card itself.

Not possible to have DVI to DP. The world will be upside down if that were possible.

A quick check before getting a new DP cable would be to try using a different power socket from monitor to the wall or a new power cable? It solved the problem for me when I switched to a different monitor requiring 2 x DPs. Have not checked why but I suspect the power socket on the extension cord I was using was a little faulty. Can happen.

Thanks for the suggestion... will try out... if really cannot then i have to bring back to exchange see if any improvement...

Possible... Digital to "another Digital" converter, powered, takes one signal and converts it to another.... cost, quite expensive.. money better spent on a new monitor...

Why no consider 1440p 27 inches

Great find. As a passthrough that is. My original reply was referring to making DVI having Display Port bandwidth.

Expensive lah.

Haha then start saving lah. You will be wowed jumping over 1440p from 1080p. The difference is big.

Poison ppl again.

Nah. Skipped 1440p and went straight to 4k and beyond.

Poison king here

4k must wait years 4 the price drop while 1440p affordable liao

Tried with exchanged cable... same result..

It seems the flickering start only with high resolution (full HD)...

Done a few testing, uninstalled the Driver (Clean) & booted up with the windows driver seems working fine...
Once i have installed the AMD driver the problem starts, i have 4 DP ports.
1st port was working fine until i installed the AMD driver and the monitor when blank, unplug and put on other port works with flickering...

I suppose its a faulty card... dont have any other monitor to test on...

or faulty cable

...since it's just fullHD... there's the HDMI alternative...

Planning to upgrade my U2412M to a 27" and so decided to call up Dell.

Quoted for the below,

*U2715H - RM1999
U2713H - RM2099

Whoah! Only RM100 differences between the U2715H and U2713H? And the U2713H comes with Premier color instead, this was about RM2.7k before this? I kinda like the design of the newer U2715H but the U2713H Premier Color is good for me as I do photo editing.

Corrected typo on the U2715H.

it's normal, old gen model price drop. design or premier color? I vote premier Color...

Which means the newer 27" PremierColor is coming soon?

Dell mentioned if purchase with MasterCard and over RM3000, have additional 5%! Butt was itchy decided to ask for the U3014 --> RM4109. Oh great...
