I need to configure xorg.conf because these cheap monitors does not have an EDID id (or something similar). So what values should I use? Anyone knows? I have once destroyed a monitor many years ago when I experimented with xorg.conf, so I am hesitant to experiment again.
I have found these posts:

"got my monitor working now using the settings cor35vet have posted, it worked when i changed option "DPMS" "true" to "DPMS" "false" and lowevering the pixelclock to 327.6 (one or both of them),"

This apparently works for dual monitor for QNIX and another screen:
