Laptop has mini-displayPort. I would assume it will be compatible with this monitor and get max res. with mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable?

The resolkution of this monitor is much over-rated. I returned it and replaced it with a Dell.

This would be determined by your video card. The port will work fine. Look up your video card and review the resolutions it supports.

You need to verify if the laptop Graphics card is a dual DVI input, that is required for this monitor.... you can email the vendor and they will let you know if it is compatible.....

No, this won't work for you (the ports are reversed from what you want: your laptop must have an HDMI port, and your monitor must have VGA port).

If you have two mini-display ports available on your laptop, then yes. If you have two different types of display ports (mini-display and HDMI) then you need to match those up with the right adapter to match your monitor display port options. i.e. thunderbolt to DVI, thunderbolt to VGA, HDMI to DVI, etc.

HiThank you for your interest.It supports but you need MiniDisplayport to Displayport cable.Monitor package has only DVI-D(dual link) Cable.Thank you.

I do not have the hardware to test that, but I would be skeptical that it would work...The DisplayPort would be passing through a DisplayPort signal, but no the other way around.

I used a DisplayPort to a DVI-D cord. Unfortunately, the HDMI only works out, not in. However, the screen resolution is still nice and sharp.

Sorry, I do not know anything about that laptop or port. I bought a similar cable, but it was not the correct one. . . .

This model has a Mini DisplayPort connection, which looks like a Thunderbolt connection, but is not actually a Thunderbolt connection. The actual port is not marked on the side of the laptop.Explanation of how these ports are used: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20043524-263.html

It technically should work, but you would have to get an active DP adapter capable of running the resolution and HAS to support Dual-Link DVI. I recently had to contact Monoprice for a very similar situation on one of their 4k monitors. They have live chat, and were able resolve my questions quickly.

No... You have to use something like DisplayPort in order to get full resolution . That's what I use... Works great... In my situation though, my video card has Display-port outputs. If yours does not, I'm not sure if you can achieve full res.

Hi, any laptop with HDMI and VGA ports are compatible with this unit.Thanks, PCrush

Not necessarily. You will need either a DVI-D cable or the Display Port cable to get the maximum resolution of 1440p, assuming you have a computer that supports a DVI-D or DP link.

I really would not know the exact specs. I have a monitor which has a DVI port. I plugged this into that DVI port and then connected a HDMI cable to the other end of the connector. That cable ran to a HDMI port in my Lenovo computer. I would say that if you are connecting a computer with a DVI port to a tv that has a HDMI port it would work. I have a laptop that I hooked up to my TV with the old 9 pin VGA cable and it worked fine although I had to hook up audio jacks between the laptop and TV as well. So if you are trying to send video signal out from a DVI port to a HDMI port I would say it would work just fine. That is basically what I am doing.

The monitor supports DVI and VGA inputs so if your laptop can output to either of those then you should be good to go. I have a VGA cable going from my Dell Latitude to the monitor without any problems.

I connected mine with dual-link DVI cable and it works fine. To get the high resolution it does need to be dual-link. You can tell if it by looking to see if it has pins in all 24 locations. Regular DVI will not support the high resolution. You can also use HDMI. It depends on the monitor and the graphics card what it supports. Hope this helps.
