Hi,
So I have never hooked up a 30" monitor and have no idea what all I will need for the task. I want to run at the max resolution so I believe I need 2 DVI cables per monitor. I'm basically looking for the most cost effective upgrades, and if anyone has suggestions on monitors feel free to leave those as well. Here is my current (relevant) hardware.
Motherboard - 1 x PCIe x16, 1 x PCIe x8/x16, 1 x PCIe x8 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188039
Vid Card - HD 4870 X2 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121294
I occasionally play games like Starcraft 2, and will be playing Diablo 3 when it comes out so a video card that can handle these would be preferred, but I can always drop to a smaller res for gaming if necessary. I run Windows 7 AND Ubuntu Linux so I want a video card setup that will work in both environments.
Thanks!
Jon
