Dual Monitors: Affect Performance?

[Thanatos.]

Ok i just received a 15" CRT for free from work and recently painted a 17" CRT black (was free also) in my new system i was thinking of running both monitors but i was wondering would that affect performance on a 6800gt? i was also thinking of putting in my old 3D Prophet II MX PCI 32MB card in and running the second monitor of that. What should i do.

probably not enough for you to really notice..

ofcourse unless you have a bunch of apps opened up and displayed on the second monitor..

Won't make a difference. Plug em both in the GT, that way, much less hassle.

 

[nobrainer]

I run 2 screens off my 68gt and see no performance hit

I've got my 2405FPW running off the DVI-D head and my ViewSonic VP171B on the D-SUB head of my x800xt and I noticed no drop in performance (Other then running games at 1920x1200).
