Silicon Graphics 1600SW
Been looking at TFTs for a bit now, and noticed these seem to be going for fairly decent prices on eBay etc.

But are they actually any good? A 17" panel which does 1600x1024 sounds very good (resolution), and as it's SGI I'm assuming the picture will be excellent too.
Anyone got one?
-
Mashie has one I think ? Try mashie.org :)
-
Cheers, looks damn nice next to his O2 :)
-
They need a special card to drive em, or an adaptor connector.
They do NOT have a VGA or DVI connector unless modified.
-
Yer I assumed Mashie was using it with the Multilink adaptor.
-
hi - does anyone have a multilink adapter and a power supply for the 1600sw tft display?
-
I'm guessing a couple of them have it but they would appear to be in use ;)
Nice thread necro btw :D
