Hello.

Will a 4770 run dual 22" monitors at 1920x1080 resolution? I'll be using it for web design and gaming.

When you connect 2 monitors to a single graphics card it basically splits it in half, so you would only get half the performance, right?

Would it be better to just buy 2 graphics cards and hook up one to each monitor? Or should I just connect both to the same graphics card?

I'll be using two Dell 22" S2209W.

Suggestions are always welcome. Maybe a stronger graphics card?
 
depends of what kind of gaming you mean

if something like like counter strike source and left 4 dead then it should do fine

i personally would go for a single stronger card like 4870x2 but that my opinion

How about the current games like WaW and Far Cry 2? And future games?

I don't need to play games on the highest possible settings. So, would you still recommend 4870? Budget is $200 max. The less the better though.
