GPU, max resolution 2560 x 1600 but no 1080p support

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a graphics card that claims to lack 1080p support despite having a maximum resolution of 2560x1600. The user connects a 32" LCD monitor set to 1920x1080, which the display recognizes as 1080p. This raises questions about the accuracy of the specifications, suggesting a possible error or misunderstanding regarding the card's HDMI capabilities. It is noted that while the card can output resolutions higher than 1080p, the specifications may not clearly indicate its ability to support 1080p via HDMI. Checking the manufacturer's website for detailed specifications is recommended for clarification.

So I have this graphics card and I don't understand why its specs say "no" for 1080p support.

It says max resolution 2560x1600 and 1080p is only 1920x1080. I use a 32" LCD for my monitor and my resolution is set to 1920x1080. When I turn on the display it actually says "HDMI 1 - 1080p." If I had the resolution set low like 1024x768 when i turn on the display it would say "HDMI 1 - 1024x768" instead of 1080p. So how can the specs say no 1080p support when the max resolution is 2560x1080 and my TV is currently recognizing it as 1080p. Is it a type in the specs or am I not understanding something about resolutions.

They could mean that the HDMI connector doesn't support 1080p - but my guess is that they have made a mistake.
You coudl check the detailed specs on the card makers site
 

Thread 'The Human Cost of AI'

This week, I saw a documentary done by the French called Les sacrifiés de l'IA, which was presented by a Canadian show Enquête. If you understand French I recommend it. Very eye-opening. I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South. There is also an interview with Milagros Miceli (appearing in both documentaries) on Youtube: I also found a powerpoint presentation by the economist Uma Rani (appearing in the French documentary), AI...

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'

Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
