I bought a new Dell Vostro and decided to upgrade to the Radeon 2400 thinking it had dual DVI outputs as most cards built around the ATI 2400 have 2. Well, it doesn't.

Apparently it has 1 Dual DVI I output. Am I able to run 2 monitors off this card without going out and buying a KVM switch? Would a DVI splitter cable do it?

The specs on the card are:

Device Type Graphics adapter

Enclosure Type Plug-in card

Interface Type PCI Express x16
Processor / Memory
Graphics Processor / Vendor ATI Radeon HD 2400PRO

Video Memory Installed 256 MB
Video Output
API Supported DirectX 10

Digital Video Standard Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
Expansion / Connectivity
Interfaces 1 x DVI-I (dual link) - 29 pin combined DVI ¦ 1 x VGA - 15 pin HD D-Sub (HD-15) ( with adapter )

Compatible Slots 1 x PCI Express x16


The card is here:

Dell 256MB Radeon HD 2400 Pro

Do you want to run both monitors at the same time or just switch between two monitors? What are you trying to accomplish?

Maybe the Matrox TripleHead would work for you... but then again it'll be cheaper to just get a new video card.

My Dell at work with an nVidia card has 1 port that splits into 2 DVI or VGA ports with an included splitter.
