So title basicly says it all. I have a computer that wife and kids want to use too. Is there a way to multiply it? Lots of USB... If GPU can handle two displays. Is there any reason why it can't? If there are enough ports for everything can we? Core i7 920. Should be enough for at least wife and kids.

You can create another user profile. Control panel / user accounts.

But you'll have to switch between it, and yours everytime you want to let the kids or your wife use it

System is a core i7 920... 6gig ram. Gtx 275. 256gb ssd (amazed how much this HD increased system performance) went from not even being able to play diablo3 on low to ultra settings in 1080p. Think my old HD died. Can still read it tho.. Makes a loud noise now

You dont need 3 monitors mouse or keyboards. It'll be confusing on one PC.

Either make another one. Or make more accounts on the one you're using. And switch between the 2 or 3
