Basically the title says it all, I have one 1366x768 20" VGA monitor, and one 1920x1080 50" HDMI Monitor. I am wondering if it's possible to have the 20" monitor used for general surfing and basically everything BUT Gaming, whereas the 50" would be only used for Gaming (e.g. Steam games).
I think this would suit me very well, as 50" is too big for regular activities, and 1366x768 isn't really suitable for real gaming so they really make up for each others disadvantages, If I must, I will only use the 50" if the VGA monitor isn't supported but this seems like a bit of a waste and it is a perfectly good monitor. Even if I only have to switch monitors instead of them both being persistent is fine.
The card I want to use for this setup is an AMD 7770 Vapor-X OC Edition
Cpu : Q9550 Core 2 Quad
Ram : 4GB DDR 2 RAM
HDD : ~500GB + 1TB External HDD
Motherboard : P5N-D Latest BIOS revision 1401
It may be a little dated except for the GPU but it should handle games well.
And I think thats it.
If I need to download specific software to enable multi-desktops, so be-it.
Also My Cpu and GPU aren't actually here yet, and so this is more a plan of how I am going to setup my pc.
Thanks for the help guys, I appreciate it.
