\n> From the comments in the EDID firmware files:
\n> EDID 2 supports 1920x2400 @ 48Hz (dual link), 3840x2400 @ 24Hz (dual
\n> link), and 1920x1200 @ 48Hz
\n> EDID 3 supports 1920x2400 @ 50Hz (dual link), 3840x2400 @ 25Hz (dual
\n> link), and 1920x1200 @ 48Hz
\n> EDID 44 supports async tiles driven by 4 computers: 1920x1200 @ 41Hz
\n> EDID 45 supports async tiles driven by 4 computers: 1920x1200 @ 48Hz
