dual monitor and 8 tables

[CCovington]

I have a 19' monitor, a 1yr old dell computer with a NVIDIA 5200 Geforce vid card. I want to get a 2nd monitor to 8-table, what else do I need, anything? Also can I 8 table w/out overlap if I simply update my vid card to something that can handle 1600/1200 resolution? Anyone have some advice or whatever, I'm not PC smart at all.
Thanks for your help,

1600x1200 will give you 4 tables. You'll need two such monitors to handle 8 tables. And you'll need a video card with two outputs, or two cards with one each. Both your video card and your monitors will have to support 1600x1200, so investigate before you buy.
