Quick monitor questions

TylerD · #1 10-30-2005, 10:23 AM

1. Can I use two different size monitors at different resolutions? e.g. 1 17" at 1280x1024 and a Dell 2001FP and 1600x1200

2. Can you recommend to me a cheap but decentish video card capable of supporting said monitors?

TIA

1 Yes
2 Something that's a few versions below the current 'brand new top of the range' type.. like a Radeon 9700, would be good, and you can pick them up quite cheaply on eBay

If you plan to get a midrange card, get a fanless one. It will save you trouble cleaning the fan and alot of the computers noise will be gone.

Do you play new games alot?
What interface?
How much can it cost?
