I am trying to choose an AGP graphics card to support two TFTs:
1680x1050 and 1280x1024 under XP (Pro). It doesn't need to be terribly
fast (no games - but a needs to cope with still-photo editing and
Coreldraw)
Can anyone help me understand:
- Am I safe to assume that any card that supports 1900x1200 will
definitely also support lesser sizes (like 1680 x 1050)? Some
manufacturer websites list perhaps a dozen specific resolutions
supported, others mention maximum resolution only.
- Will any card that specifies that it will support two monitors work
properly with a simple DVI splitter cable? Some cards do have two DVI
sockets, but most of the cards seem to have one DVI and one 15-pin VGA
- and it seems daft to degrade to analogue for the connection to a
second DVI display.
- How do I check which cards will support two screens at different
resolutions? - I've read some cards described as only supporting two
screens if they run at the same resolution.
Maybe you should post to a hardware newsgroup.
