Hi all,
Firstly, I've had brilliant help working out my current set up from this forum and it has served me well in ramping up old games to gorgeous standards and also new ones like Warthunder on highest settings which looks very nice. However, I never use multiple screens for gaming - all monitors are different.
I run a small not for profit coaching organisation and 3 screens is a must, but 4 would be best. It's a mission managing databases of students, video editing, class schedules, emails, web designs (Serif not code - memory hungry), large banner designs, 3D plans (low end) simultaneously when everyone wants it all straight away.
Went for:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz
16.0 GB RAM
64 bit
SSD primary HD
GeForce GTX 560 Ti
Windows 7
HP 2009v 20"
1600 x 900 - DVI
DELL ST2410
1920 x 1080 - HDMI
Adding 2 x DELL 1708FPt - DVI
Made the mistake of thinking 3 inputs meant 3 monitors, just read lots posts here along the same lines. I also though 3D vision meant 3 screens.
So question is: how do I add another 2 (at least 1) monitors so that I can scroll across all screens and without breaking the bank. A couple of price options would be really great. (I'm in the UK if that makes a difference). Budget is £30 - £50 but I'm happy to push it, if justified.
(If the answer is to add a lower quality card, do I have to make sure any 3D, design or gaming processes are done using the monitors connected to the GTX 560 or does this not matter?)
I think it's something to do with SLI but haven't quite got my head around what that means in practice.
Many thanks in advance.
