Hi all. I'm looking for 3 or 4 displays, whichever is easier given my PC configuration.
Here's what I have:
Dell Optiplex 960
8GB Ram
core 2 duo
ati radeon HD 3450 (occupying PCI-e 16x)
1 open PCI-e 1x
2 open PCI
1 occupied PCI-e 16x (see ati above)
Windows server 2008 64-bit
The ATI card is a splitter only dual display card, which I currently have hooked into to 20" lcds. I have another 19" display that I'd like to get hooked up. They are all DVI input LCDs
Anyone have any suggestions how I can upgrade or change my config to support more than just two monitors? I tried a newer nvidia card but the ati and nvidia chipsets do no play together in windows 2008. I then got a radeon m9200, but of course the OEM catalyst drivers don't support 64bit anything.
I'm sort of stuck. If it would just be best to get a single PCI-e 16x quad-out card, I might have a problem. I saw there is a quad ATI but it requires two molex power adapters to make the thing run, and I checked my box, there are no open molex.
I feel like I'm never going to get this extra monitor in use.
Thanks so much!
