| There's a dual-display radeon out that should do the trick. If you currently have an AGP graphic card, you can also look into getting one of the cheaper PCI radeon 7200 cards. I'm runing dual monitor with a radeon 7500 All In Wonder AGP for the primary display (1600x1200) and a 7200 for the secondary (1152x864) and it runs no problems. |

| well, there's a dual monitor radeon card that's out, and that's one of the only ones that does it. You're gonna lose some performance though since it's got a lot more to proccess and from what I've heard it doesn't refresh that well all the time. |

| well considering my card i have right now is a 2mb and the radeon is a 32 mb i think it wil be better anyways |

| A few other alternatives you may want to consider....
The DuoGraphics AGP & ISA Dual Monitor video cards from Tridium Research. You can run dual CRT's as independent, separate display monitors or as a single large display with resolutions up to 2560 x 1024 pixels
Also Check out the line of Matrox dual head cards. You can mix and match CRT monitors with each other, with digital or analog flat panel monitors, or with an extra TV that may be lying around. Screen resolution is 1280 x 1024. Definitely the most versatile solution.
For a more extensive monitor set up, Appian Graphics has a PCI video card that'll power as many as 4 monitors from a single card. Add a second Appian Graphics quad-monitor card for an eight-multi monitor setup using just two PCI slots. Wickid! |
