Seems to be a hard question to get an answer to. Wondering if the DVI out on my AIT 9700 Pro is a Single or Dual link one. The middle pins are there and seems to be connected on the PCB....

Thinking of getting a pretty high rez LCD 1920 x 1080 at 60 Hz (HDTV). Theoretically this is barely within the spec for Single Link i guess. The display I am looking at only does 1920X1080@60hz without scaling or 1280x768@60hz.
 
I am not aware of any dual-link cards which are not workstation-grade.

Your Radeon 9700 should be single-link.
 
Several models of Quadros and higher-end FireGL cards are dual-link capable. Presumably some of 3D Labs's Wildcat line are also capable.

With reduced vertical blanking interval ticked WUXGA should be OK at 60Hz. You would only have to have dual link for the 30" Apple monitor, and the extreme IBM 22" which requires a total of 3 links I believe.
