Single-Link DVI (or Single-Link TMDS) and Max. Resolution

[Savage1701]

OK, I keep reading different things. What is the maximum DVI resolution that a single-link TMDS transmitter can output? Is it 1920x1080 or 1920x1200? I seem to see both crop up. Thanks for any help in this matter. And just to clarify, I know that the analog-out on the DVI-I ports is higher, usually something like 2048x1536, but I am not interested in that, just the DVI output for a flat panel accepting DVI input.

What Lcd or projector do you plan to use?
And what is the native res/mhz?

It all depends on the Monitor/projector and the capabilties of the video processor:
* HDTV (1920 × 1080)
* UXGA (1600 × 1200)
* WUXGA (1920 x 1200)
* SXGA (1280 × 1024)

1920*1200 is the biggest "standard" resolution you can push through a single link at 60Hz with 24 bits per pixel. The bandwidth is really ~ 2.75 MPixels per second.

See the official DVI spec if you insist on all the gory details.
