Forums -> Multiple monitors -> List of common PCI cards ?
Ricky   2007-08-04 08:15
Hi there,

I have just 1 PCI-e slot and that's filled in with a nvidia 6200 and a Dual monitor config runs fine.

Added a ATI Rage II (Tv Tuner) PCI card and a 3rd monitor is supported - BUT - not to the resolution of 1280 x 1024 which the others are at.

So I'm assuming I will need another PCI card and my ATI Rage II will not do well enough.

Can anyone suggest which PCI cards are common and will work well to support that resolution so I can try and source it from somewhere.

BTW - Will those old Cirus Logic/S3Trio with 1/2 MB do? I guess not but still asking : ) A bunch of them at my storage somewhere....

Thanks guys.

Cheers,
Ricky

I'd get another nVidia card, such as:

Excellent help there David DeRolph.
Thank you very much.

A problem for me cause I'm out of the US and calling 10 ppl here has got me no hope on this stuff yet, but I can only keep trying.

Thanks again !

Cheers,
Ricky
