Hi all,
My lovely partner has had enough of my complaining about wanting dual monitors (im spoiled at work with 2) and bought me 2 very nice 22inch Samsung monitors. My Graphics card was pretty awesome when i bought it, however does not seem to handle the dual monitors very well at all. I can set one to 1920X1080 crystal clear, however the second monitor is fuzzy no matter the resolution. Im thinking my card simply isnt up to par.
My current cars is an 8800gt 320mb. I know crap specs now, but back then...... It ran Oblivion at full steam and that was the important thing. Strangely my mobo is a p5b deluxe that is crossfire ready...
So now it is time to upgrade and my question is what card, there are way too many to choose from. Do I just go for a very nice solo high-ish end card (sub 300$AUD) or would 2 mid range cards x-fired be a better option??
I have been looking at the XFX PCIe HD4890 1GB Extreme card for a solo rig, this way my PSU doesnt need to be upgraded. Will this run both monitors at 1920X1080 and sharp??
Would love some opinions or suggestions.
Thanks
