I'm in the process of building my own i5 system and need some advise on 'Multi display graphic cards'
I have three vga monitors, It now seems impossible to get a multi vga card and it would appear most now use dvi or hdmi.
1. If I buy a multi dvi card what is required to convert each dvi feed into vga.
Can I get away with just a dvi/vga converter (amazon 15p) on each dvi port and then continue to use my vga cables?
Will the three displays be a mirror version of each other? or is this down to the software supplied with the card?
2. Normal Graphic cards now support one vga, one dvi and one hdmi port - will the displays be mirrored or different on all displays if I connect to all three (using vga converters)
3. What type of graphics card is needed to be compatible with an i5 system - PCI or PCIE or either?
Sorry if I am making this sound confusing but it is to me and I'm hoping someone can deconfuse it for me.
thanx..
