I own a BeyerDynamic DT 880, I lost my original receipt, how do I find out  how many OHMS my model has?

Quote: yes dvi-d means dual link

Quote: i meant to write before that i am running 2560 X 1600 (not 1080), and yes i am using a dvi-d cable.

Quote: after gaming at 2560 X 1080 with a dvi-d cable and my dell monitor, i have decided that 2560 X 1080 with gaming looks significantly better than 1920 X 1080 over hdmi. unless i play a console game i never want to play a pc gaming at anything less than 2560 X 1080.

Quote: i agree. pny said my hdmi will not do audio only, i might still try it when i get a receiver. as of now it will probably be optical cable to receiver, dvi-d to monitor.

Quote: sorry, i meant to say sony and microsoft in regards to their next consoles, as of now, will not support gaming resolution beyond 1080p

Quote: i am almost positive what you are referring to is only for video (movies, documentaries, etc... that go beyond 1080p).  pc gaming takes up a lot more processing power from a pc. According to a phone conversation i had with PNY my video card company, they said only dvi-d cables and...

Quote: not sure who the "they" is you are referring to.  is it perhaps the message on boxes of hdtvs that say "FULL HD 1080p" have succeeded in marketing to the masses.   with dvi-d cables and from what i have been told display ports cable you can game way beyond 1080, check my screenshot...

Quote: i spoke with pny the video card company of both my gtx 680 video cards and they said no matter what hdmi cable version you use you will not go beyond 1080p for gaming. he did say display port will support over 1080p.  what i just mentioned is probably why , as of know, sony and...

i know it has been some time, but thank you for your post

Quote: i agree that hdmi is probably capable of 3840 X 2160 however i think that is only with movies/ video (the current small amount of "4K" stuff that is out there to buy).  DVI-D is different from DVI , from my understanding DVI-D the only cable that can produce true 1080p stereoscopic...

Quote: the reason i want to use dvi-d for video is because i have a 30 inch dell u3011 monitor which supports 2560 X 1600 which with pc gaming looks  much better than 1080p gaming, this is why i prefer dvi-d over hdmi. i am pretty sure only dvi-d can support 2560 X 1600.

Quote: can i have only audio pass through one of my GTX 680 video cards though hdmi and video pass through the dvi-d cable so that i can have hdmi audio and 2560 x 1600 video?  or am i stuck with optical and 2560 x 1600 resolution?

do i still need a good sound card for my pc to take advantage of a receiver?  

i have logitech z906 speakers  however i want to step up pc audio in the following department. i also have Yamaha NS-SP1800BL 5.1-Channel Home Theater Speaker System that I have not used yet.  I am also covered in the headphone department as i have sennheiser hd598, klipsch x10i, beyerdynamic dt...

I use the HT Omega Claro Plus.  http://www.htomega.com/claroplus.html   I wanted to know when playing a game , listening to music, watching a video, watching a bluray, etc... how do I know which KHz setting to use? In my sound card settings software there is an option for Digital Audio 44.1...

Quote: thank you. Few more questions.   If I was to buy the Beyer Dynamic DT880 which ohm version should I get? Sorry I don't know much about ohms   I only own an Astro Mixamp, could you recommend a better amp that I may benefit from?    Also here is the video card I have...

Quote: thanks you i ordered the 598s, I don't listen to sound too loud so hopefully my mic does not pic up the leaked headphone noise. i do not listen to separate music while playing games, as games have there own excellent music built in.   i do like the open design as I think it will...

I am looking for audiophile grade headphones to be used with gaming, movie viewing, and music. I have a few questions that would help me pick a set. I will pay a lot if it is worth it. Budget is up to $500, preferably much less however I would spend closer to $500 if iy made a difference. I...

Quote: thanks for your help, maybe I will move my question elsewhere. I figured high end headophones that are capable of incredible music audio would also be capable of great gaming audio, especially being that music is huge part of video games, or at least the ones I play. Recent...

thankyou flatmap. besides other people in the room hearing my headphones open sound will a close by mic pic up that sound, specifically something like a Buddy DesktopMini 7G and antlion modmic?
