The Mini DisplayPort to SingleLink DVI adapter will be able to show full native resolution on all displays except the LCD3090WQXi. The Mini DisplayPort to DualLink DVI adapter is required on the LCD3090WQXi in order to display the full 2560×1600 native resolution. Note: It is currently (as of OS 10.5.7) necessary to use the SingleLink adapter when calibrating the LCD3090WQXi with SpectraView II. Therefore both adapters are required. See the README file for the SpectraView software for more details.
