Is the i7 GPU enouth for two displays?

[snowjim]

Hi,

Im building a computer for work and Im thinking of using the built in GPU in i7, will this handle 2 Displays in 1920x1200 without problems?

I could add a fanless PCI-Express GPU but this will make the temp to raise a bit i guess?

BestRegards

should be no problem.

not an issue, my i3 in my laptop can do it quite happily, though it does struggle if one of them is a film, but that could a decoding issue, but it does go away if I switch only external monitor.

Yes the Intel® HD 2000/3000 Graphics can both support dual displays. For additional information on the Intel HD Graphics you can look here http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/quick-reference-guide-to-intel-processor-graphics/
