Paul, In my experience, I have found that not all resolutions will allow 70 Hz and above for a specific video card/monitor combo. I would have to experiment until I found the one that worked. On my present system, I am using an LG (square type) monitor with a resolution of 1024 x 756 running at 75 Hz. My operating system is kubuntu Linux. To run the 5000A I am setting up a dedicated Microsoft box that will only run the radio and nothing else.
