Dual Display ?

[Karama]

I am going to need to setup two monitors (LCD) and I need them both to be at 1600 x 1200. How fast a card do I need? Will the ASUS 7900GS with 256 MB of Ram be good enough?. Can I get something less expensive?

It should be able to.. I believe I could run at a higher resolution then that when I had my ATi 9600XT + 2 monitors.. in 2d/desktop though.. not sure about in games

you gonna game?? If so I would step up to something with more power, as 1600x1200 on dually might push it. If your just running desktops and simple apps, then that will be fine

I can run two 1680x1050 LCD panels with the 6800 Go in my Dell 9300 notebook. I can even span them together and get 3360x1050 but, as you would expect, 3D performance takes quite a dive at this resolution. No problems at all at the windows desktop.

If 3D games aren't your object, a 7600 should do the trick, but if they are you may want to consider a 7900 with 512M RAM (eg. GTO or GTX).
