I need to build a system capable of playing 4 different fullscreen movies on 4 monitors. I will have 2 dual head video cards feeding 4 monitors.

I have only a medium sized budget for the computer ($800-$1000) so I can't go all out but I'd like to get some opinions on cpus, video cards and memory.
Thanks

I think it could be possible... I can run 4 different movies in seperate windows on my old system now. I also have a linux program that will run 4 or more seperate desktops from 1 computer. I think if I had enough ram onboard and video ram and a fast cpu I could get full screen on 4 monitors. The movies are on the hardrive by the way, mpegs.

Maybe it's possible and maybe someone else can come up with something but it seems like a tall order on your budget IMO. I could be wrong.
