IBM Display/Video Support

The following table lists the current IBM display product lines and indicates their support for popular modes. All products listed except 6318 and 6321 are multisync allowing any frequency within their operational range.

Table Note
o = Flicker free
i = Interlaced Mode
X = Non Interlaced

The VESA standard to refresh rate to support flicker free viewing of 72Hz non interlaced is now achievable at a resolution 1280 x 1024 while maintaining a 256 color palette.

The discussion on the usage of a higher resolution and a larger color palette for a particular function will need to include the consideration for the displays mode effect on the images of that function. Graphics or images utilizing thin lines would NOT normally be acceptably run in interlaced mode.
