GPU Advice for 3 Screen Setup?

Just wanted to thank you guys for all the help. It took a bit of work but I ended up getting the onboard to work with the dedicated GPU so I'm up and running. It's not perfect but it'll work for now until I decide it's time to retire my gtx 460.

GPU Advice for 3 Screen Setup?

Damn good question; I've never tried but maybe I'll get lucky and my board will allow both to operate at the same time. I'll start there b/c if I don't have to change anything that would obviously be the easiest and quickest route to take. Thanks.

GPU Advice for 3 Screen Setup?

My current card is way too old and doesn't support 3 devices at once so I need to either upgrade it entirely or, if it's an option, buy a 2nd card just for the tv.

GPU Advice for 3 Screen Setup?

Only the tv will be connected via hdmi and since I can run both my 24" Dell monitors off of display port connections if need be I don't think I will be limited to the new cards (at least as I understand it). For some reason I had it in my head having two cards would cause problems if not...

GPU Advice for 3 Screen Setup?

Hey guys, I recently changed around the format of my home office and I now have a 50" 4k tv above my desk, which already houses my dual dell u2412's. Since the tv is right there I figure why not connect it to the pc too (via hdmi b/c no display port)? Problem is I'm pretty sure my current...

Need Video Card -- Non Gamer

I've got a friend with an old HP Compaq dc5700 who only uses his computer for word processing, internet, e-mail, etc. He's using this as a work computer and he's never gamed in his life so he's just using the onboard card for video, which only has a single vga port. Well he recently saw my...

Thanks for the replies guys. And I may have missed the boat on the 256gb pro. Last week it was listed for $249 with an instant $20 off if purchased with mobo or cpu, then an additional 10% off of that price b/c all samsung ssd's were on sale. I thought those sales carried over to this week...

lian li PC-V1100 and Seasonic S12-500?

I agree with Operandi. I'm pretty sure the Powerstream is too long for the V1100. I don't have the specs in front of me, but I believe my Antec NeoPower 480 is (at least 1/2 to 1 inch) shorter in length than the Powerstream, and my NeoPower is in my V1100 with no room to spare.

Whoa! I ordered around 12:00 PST today and my ship date is 3/17 with an estimated delivery date of 3/21. I've seen multiple posts claiming that Dell ships items much faster than their estimates, so here's hoping it's true. Either way, I can't wait to have this screen in front of me.
