What type of
monitors do you
need?
Your Fire GL 8700 is optimally
configured to be combined with digital
flat-panel (DFP) TFT LCD displays and
digital CRT displays. You can also
connect the Fire GL 8700 to high-
resolution MultiSync or multi-frequency
monitors or other VGA monitors.
Notes:

Plug-and-Play
monitor that supports VESA’s Display
Channel specifications (DDC1 or
DDC2) to take advantage of the
DDC1/DDC2b+ features
(2)
You can use the full power of the
graphics card only if your monitor
supports the horizontal (kHz) and
vertical (Hz) refresh rates as required
by the graphics card. Refer to your
monitor's documentation for
recommended refresh rates
