Video Card - Three Screens
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Hello,
Lawyer not tech guy here. My office is replacing around 100 existing desktop computers with all new machines. I am fortunate that I can specify my own equipment within reason. I would like to specify a video / graphics card that will support two independent desktop monitors (one for word processing and one for Windows Office) and a third screen being a fairly large and fairly new Sony flatscreen that is bolted to the wall of my office across from my desk. The Sony flatscreen has HDMI inputs which I am not currently using because my existing video card is analog only output. Our tech support guys juryrigged our existing system to run my 3 monitors but I want to upgrade the quality of the signal - especially the feed to the TV. Exactly what video card or cards should I specify to the people ordering our new system? Our existing boxes are small profile boxes. I am not sure what the profile of the new boxes will be, but again I have some control over that issue for my own workstation. Cost is not the top factor but I am not a gamer or 3D enthusiast so I probably don't need the best of the best.
Thanks in advance.

More about : video card screens
A GTX650 supports 3 monitors with 2 DVI and 1 mini-HDMI. It's fairly cheap and uses low power as well. Here's an EVGA GTX 650. This one comes with a DVI-VGA adapter in case you need it.

I'd recommend a 7750 over a GTX 650 - they're the same price, but Radeon does better with multiple screens and large resolutions, and uses only the power from the motherboard.HD7750 uses Display Port. Not a lot of monitors have display port. It'll require adapters that may add to the cost.
