Re: Related Question
If Im not mistaken, its DVI (Dual Video Input) that tells you if you can hook up more than one monitor...Im no computer expert though...but I believe this is correct...In my case, I will most likely have to get an adapter for the 2nd CRT...If you go the LCD monitor route (one of these days...) you dont need an adapter...
We could use someone who knows for sure...and I know there are plenty of 2+2er's who would have the answer... Help us out gang... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

An old geforce2 w/32MB of RAM and dual outputs can do 1600x1200 on both. I'm not sure about newer displays. If you're serious about multi monitors get a matrox. They have been the leader in 2d video cards for decades. They have a card that will do three, the "parhelia" I think.

[/ QUOTE ] DVI = Digital Visual Interface. So no, DVI does not imply dual monitor support. Usually the specs will just say the card supports dual monitors. |

DOH!!!! Shows you how much I know...thanks Krimson
So there's no way to know if the video card supports more than one monitor except if it just sez so? |

Re: Looking for a mid range video card
USUALLY, the cards can be paired. I do so little in WindowsXP I won't make any absolute statments. Appian/ATI 9000 Raedon does it, but it's $500.
