Display
-Analog display support
-350-MHz integrated 24-bit RAMDAC that can drive a standard progressive scan
analog monitor with pixel resolution up to 1600x1200 at 85 Hz and up to
2048x1536 at 75 Hz

interface; two 12-bit channels can be combined to form one dual channel 24-bit
interface with an effective dot clock of 330-MHz
-The combined DVO B/C ports as well as individual DVO B/C ports can drive a variety
of DVO devices (TV-Out Encoders, TMDS and LVDS transmitters, etc.) with pixel
resolution up to 1600x1200 at 85 Hz and up to 2048x1536 at 72 Hz.
