DUAL DVI

[kiko]

is DUAL DVI the same as DUAL VIEW?
the main thing for me is actualy if i will get the workspace on 2 monitors or not?
now i am using matrox (or maxtor. always confuses me) g450. with 2 monitors conected with d-sub.

You're thinking of Dual LINK DVI. It's a different type of DVI cable that will do resolutions over 1920 x 1080. But to run 2 monitors you will need to cables.

ok! that i know! but is it going to extend the desktop or is monitor 2 just going to show a copy of the monitor 1?

With software you can have two monitors display one desktop...as in the taskbar will stretch across the monitor...like pairing two 1024x768 monitors for a 2048x768 desktop...yes its irelavent...

Yeahp thats exactly what a gpu with two dvi inputs will do...two different monitors...either mirrored or with an extended desktop etc
