 Topic: Digital Storm Monitor?Posted: 31 Jul 2014 at 5:14pm |

I ordered the DS Vanquish 2 Lvl 3, haven't received it yet but I also ordered " Acer 24 inch (Widescreen) (Black) (High-Performance Gaming Display". My question is there any more info about this monitor that I can get? What are the specs? Does it have an HDMI input? I know I should have researched but I was in the moment of buying my first gaming PC and got the monitor because it said "High-Performance Gaming Display", I have confidence that DS would only have the highest quality of monitors to offer, but I still would like to know more about it. I have tried to Google it, but couldn't get a positive answer. Thank you guys for your support.

Hi HMNavy... Hit the 'more info' under the monitor in the configurator for more info and the model number to make Google search easier. It does not have and HDMI. It has a D sub and DVI connector.
Congrats on the Vanquish level 3. Nice rig.

OMG! Thank you so much! You are a life saver, really hoped that it had a HMDI, should have looked hard, but oh well! >:D

My pleasure.
The monitor doesn't have built in speakers so no real need for HDMI. HDMI is, for the most part, DVI with audio channels. DVI from the graphics card to the monitor will work great. When it arrives, make sure you hook the monitor to the graphics card below the rear fan and not the motherboard connector next to the fan.
Have fun and let us know. |

As the great and power Oz....errr DVI cables attached to the GPU, and not mobo, will give you the same results as HDMI without speakers.
