Hey,

I am looking for the cheapest graphics card with 2 VGA slots on it money can buy!

I've been hunting around on the internet and the cheapest I've found is around £20 but considering it's for a small business it's a bit of an expensive venture, we just want 2 monitors after all, on about 6 machines or so.

Thanks,
Ross

Basically all full-sized video card have two, as far as I know. The half-sized video cards usually has one.

I'm sure no one keeps a record of the cheapest video card, so you'd just have to look around.

If you have an existing video card or IGP, perhaps this could work for you: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6882339131

That is, if you just want two monitors doing the same thing instead of two combined monitors to make one or something. Translates to about 13quid.

Hmm, some of the computers have existing video cards, would it be any problem to use splitters on those do you think? (I can only think the power supply would be affected?)

For the computers without graphic cards I think I'll have to get a PCI card for them, any recomendations?

I personally think there wouldn't be any issues using that on existing video cards, but I have never used one before. Shouldn't be a problem, after all it just duplicates Windows in each monitor. Perhaps lower image quality?

All computers has video cards or Integrated graphics in them, or else how are you supposed to view anything? Unless you removed the video card or bought a pc without one, then a PCI video card is the only solution if there isn't any AGP or PCI-E slots. Being a hardware enthusiast, I have recommendations for high-end stuff, but not low end, so unfortunately, I can only say buy a PCI videocard from a trusted vendor, like EVGA, BFG, XFX, VisionTek, etc. I live in the US, so there may be good companies over there too.
