Andreas Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hi In my continuing quest to shrink my computer corner, I am now considering Plan B. This is the cheapo solution which let's me keep 'The Tank', my old G4/400, and buy an LCD screen instead of the current CRT cinema display. I have an ATI 7500 32MB card installed, which is very nice for CM, although a bit on the slow side. I believe (will check when I get home) that it has two exits, ADC and VGA. Could I directly connect say, an LG L1740PQ 17 inch Flatron TFT Monitor to the card and would it run okay? Also, does anyone have suggestions for a 19" LCD screen in the €300-350 range? When I had a PC I used an LG screen and was quite happy with it. Cheers Andreas 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicky Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hi Andreas, Formac Gallery 1900 Xtreme TFT Display DVI & ADC I recommend it after having got the 2010 model or here www.ebuyer.com (with reviews) - this latest model is DVI only so you'll need an adaptor. You should be able to connect your 17" DVI TFT monitor to your ADC card mac if you use a Belkin Monitor adaptor Looks like the Radeon® 7500 Mac Edition (OEM version) only has ADC... DISPLAY CONFIGURATIONS Apple flat panel on ADC* Standard CRT monitor on VGA Apple CRT monitor on ADC* Apple ADC flat panel* plus standard CRT Apple ADC CRT* plus standard CRT * Non-Apple Digital Flat Panels can be substituted for ADC displays using 3rd party ADC to DVI adapter Enjoy [ February 09, 2006, 05:49 AM: Message edited by: Wicky ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Posted February 9, 2006 Author Share Posted February 9, 2006 That looks like a nice one. Thanks a lot Wicky! Even a bit cheaper here in France than it is in the UK. All the best Andreas 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
