5. T221 installation amp system attachement information Model recommendation The primary consideration for choosing either the T221 model DG3 or DG5 is the rate at which it is desired to display image changes Internal frame buffers within the T221 ensure that the panel is always refreshed at a suitable rate 41Hz in the DG3 41 48Hz in the DG5 however bandwidth and 1 0 considerations on the DVI interface mean that the frame buffers may be updated with new data at a slower rate For many applications this isn t an issue however some applications require a higher rate so that motion or data changes are presented as quickly and smoothly as possible The following table summaries the recommended T221 model and graphics card s depending on the preferred update rate T221 IBM Supported Image e Minimum motion Typical Applications Firmware Graphics Cards characteristic rA EE Model EDID level NVIDIA Primarily Office static Applications Publishing Virtual Galleries amp 13Hz DG3 5 2 Museums Digital Photography FX1100 FX1300 9 FX1100 Engineering amp Modeling Re 24Hz DG5 02 FX3400 G5 Image analysis roaming windowing 48Hz D Po Smooth amp leveling life like Video Creation Document version 1 0 Page 1 9 1 2004 Graphics cards e IBM certified graphics cards o AGP NVIDIA Quadro FX 4000 special bid only NVIDIA Quadro FX 3000 NVIDIA Quadro FX 2000 special bid only NVIDIA Quadro FX 1100 s
