I am building a custom PC. I've got it all spec'd and price of components quoted, as well as an OS boot/install media prepared. I am hoping to be able to reuse an Apple Display I purchased between the release of the Rev. D iMacs and Rev. E (we're currently at Rev. H). It has a standard DVI connector, if you take the mini-DVI adapter off. Of course, I won't be able to use the Firewire port replicator feature of this monitor. I might be able to use it as a USB port replicator only, but I'm not sure if that will even work given the difference in power provided to USB ports on Macs versus non-Mac PCs. The CPU I picked is an AMD A8, which has integrated Radeon graphics and supports VGA, DVI, and DisplayPort natively when paired with a suitable motherboard. Has anyone else tried a setup like this? If so, have you run into any issues (say, you can't adjust the brightness)?
