Hi, my graphics card is VGA HD 5850 1GB DDR5 PCIE 2DVI/HDMI/DP FULL which means it only has one slot for the monitor cable.
I bought it almost 4 years ago for around 320 euros. So ideally I'd like to keep my my graphics card and was interested in knowing what would be the cheapest way to set up dual monitors?

From that description it looks like you have 4 outputs on your card and with 2 DVI outputs setting up dual screens is super easy. Whats your present challenge with it?

I opened the computer and looked closely at the card and you're right, it has two outputs, I guess they must have forgotten to create the lower opening when they installed it! This should be easily fixable, thanks!
