[Solved] GTX 980ti - DVI - Sierra not getting full resolution

[chibabah]

I have read through the forums looking for help, checked the latest drivers as of an hour or so ago, and changed my config.plist as best as I'm aware.

What I'm seeing is that the resolution is really, really bad (2560x1600 is unreadable). I don't know if this is a driver issue, or a hardware issue - mainly because I'm not certain what I SHOULD be seeing in the settings panes. Has anyone else run into this?

Well, is 2560x1600 the native resolution of your screen? Then that's what you should see...

Did you connect your display with a Dual-Link DVI cable? Single-Link isn't sufficient for resolutions beyond 1080p.

As far as the settings, the card will not appear in a slot unless you inject it using a DSDT/SSDT. The preference panes look completely normal.

Pebkac - was using an ancient DVI cable from the drawer.
