RE: [Digital BW] Recommend a Dual Monitor Graphics Card?

2003-08-04 by Frank Mares

I use dual monitors-main monitor NEC FP 1375 22 inch and 17" CTX as
second. Work great with nVIDIA GeForce4 4800 card with 128 mgb RAM by
Gainward. I run XP Pro on dual 2 Gb Xeon processors and all works well.
Toolbars palettes etc. on second monitor give me lots of real estate on
main monitor. I really didn't spend a lot on the second monitor since I
use the CRT for my critical viewing etc.I understand the 4800 card has
been superseded by another  so you might find that card at a good price!

Subject: [Digital BW] Recommend a Dual Monitor Graphics Card?

Anybody use dual monitors?  I bet it's great with Photoshop.  I'll 
have a 17" Dell Trinitron soon to match up with my Dell 19" 
Trinitron and would like some recommendations for graphics cards.

I'd like to get one card for both monitors.

I've heard good things about Matrox.  Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Tom
