That means the adapter is single-link. The monitor will not display a strobed resolution correctly without dual-link DVI.

You would need one of those expensive active DisplayPort to dual-link DVI converters with USB for power, but I wouldn't recommend it because you won't be able to unlock LightBoost with the adapter if the monitor loses power, but you could use an HDMI-DVI cable to unlock LightBoost if that happens. It'd be better to get a card with dual-link DVI, or get a newer monitor with strobing capability.
