Hi there,

Im thinking of buying two BenQ XL2411T's and putting them on a single GTX-680, But i just read that you need to use a Dual Link DVI port to get the 120Hz. and on my GTX-680 I only have one Dual Link DVI port and another Single DVI port. So how can i get the two monitors on 120Hz on my GTX-680. Thanks for reading.

Does your GTX 680 have a DisplayPort? If so, you could use something like DualHead2Go from Matrox to go from 1x DisplayPort input to 2x DVI-D outputs to drive two DVI-D monitors. I'm not sure if the XL2411T has a DisplayPort input, if it did, you could just drive one monitor on DisplayPort and one on DVI-D... If the XL2411T doesn't have DisplayPort and your videocard does, I would recommend the VG248QE instead, as it does have a DisplayPort and 144Hz support.


Otherwise, your only bet is to get a second 680 for a second DVI-D port, or get a new video card with two DVI-D ports.
