Graphics Subsystem
The board supports either integrated graphics (Intel Graphics Technology) or PCI
Express 2.0 x16 graphics.
Integrated Graphics
The board supports integrated graphics through the Intel ® Flexible Display Interface
(Intel ® FDI) for processors with Intel Graphics Technology.
NOTE
If using a processor with integrated graphics, the board will support only two of the
three integrated graphics interfaces simultaneously: DisplayPort, DVI-I, DVI-D. Also,
during the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the board will not output to the DisplayPort if
DVI-I or DVI-D is used concurrently with DisplayPort.
DisplayPort*
DisplayPort is a digital communication interface that utilizes differential signaling to
achieve a high bandwidth bus interface designed to support connections between PCs
and monitors, projectors, and TV displays. DisplayPort is suitable for display
connections between consumer electronics devices such as high definition optical disc
players, set top boxes, and TV displays. DisplayPort output can be converted to High-
Definition Multimedia Interface* (HDMI*) output using a DisplayPort-HDMI converter.
DisplayPort’s maximum supported display resolution is 2560 x 1600 at a 60 Hz refresh
rate with a 16:10 aspect ratio (WQXGA). DisplayPort 1.1 adds support for High
Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) version 1.3 which enables viewing of
protected content from Blu-ray Disc* and HD-DVD optical media over DisplayPort 1.1
connections.

Digital Visual Interface
Intel Desktop Board DQ57TM supports Digital Visual Interface (DVI) displays with two
back panel ports: a DVI-D port and a DVI-I port.
The DVI-I port supports both digital and analog DVI displays. The maximum
supported resolution is 2048 x 1536 at a 75 Hz refresh rate (QXGA). The DVI-I port is
compliant with the DVI 1.0 specification. DVI analog output from the DVI-I port can
be converted to VGA for viewing on a VGA display using a DVI-VGA converter.
The DVI-D port supports only digital DVI displays. The maximum supported resolution
is 2048 x 1536 at a 75 Hz refresh rate (QXGA). The DVI-D port is compliant with the
DVI 1.0 specification.
