Dell 330WFP DisplayPort equipped LCD hits Dell New Zealand website Gamers know that the big 30-inch displays seem good while gaming at resolutions of 2560 x 1600, assuming you have the picture muscle to have playable chassis rates.

There are several competitors in the 30-inch exhibit stadium and many of them are gearing upward to place DisplayPort interfaces on their latest offerings. Dell New Zealand has an original 30-inch exhibit on its website that offers a plethora of connectivity options. The 30-inch 2560 x 1600 settlement exhibit has a couple of DVI-D ports, something that Dell's previously accessible 30-inch exhibit sorely lacked. Other input options include a HDMI port, DisplayPort, analogue VGA, composite picture, part picture and S-video connectors.

The Dell New Zealand site lists the 3008WFP’s response time at 8ms and quotes 178-degree viewing angles. Brightness for the monitor is 370cd/m2 and the dynamic contrast ratio is 3000:1. The stand has tilt, swivel, and is height adjustable. Pricing for the 3008WFP on the New Zealand Dell site is NZ$2,699 delivered, equating to about $2,040 USD.

Dell plans to announce its 3008WFP display at the Consumer Electronics Show on January 7, 2008 in Las Vegas.

Before making use of the DisplayPort on the Dell 3008WFP a DisplayPort equipped video card is required. DailyTech reported recently that AMD would have DisplayPort equipped video cards on the market in early 2008. In October, Gateway announced its first 30-inch display called the XHD3000, which lacks the DisplayPort input.

Samsung announced its 30-inch display equipped with a DisplayPort input in July of 2007.
