    I just looked through the http://pcbu.ako.dec.com/ site and the only
    information I found is a spec which says max res/refresh is 1280x1024
    at 75 Hz.  The Celebris GL 5xxx on-board Matrox implementation is a
    low-end one compared to the Matrox card, and priced accordingly.  For
    high-end use, you need to replace (i.e. just ignore) the inexpensive
    on-board version.

RE: The last note.

My Celebris GL5100ST works fine in 1600x1200 (256 colours) - the only thing that I had to do to get '95/NT 4.0 to work properly with
it was to get 
the latest drivers from ftp.matrox.com - the ones on the PCBU's site are way out of date!

Oh... and the monitor will use upto 85Hz using 1280x1024 and less

    RAMDAC is 175Hz, the same as the OEM plug in cards.
    
    The other plug in card has a 220Hz RAMDAC.
