I'm currently using a 7800GT OC which has dual DVI ports on a mobo (GA-MA78LM-S2) that has DVI/VGA ports with the ATI Radeon 3000 chipset. If all I'm concerned about is the ability to use dual monitors (2xDell E207WFP, 1680x1050), would I see any difference using either option? I'd like to take out the 7800GT OC because I feel like it's introducing unnecessary noise to my system due to the fan. Would using DVI on one monitor, VGA on another result in a noticeable unevenness? Also I'm not too happy with NVIDIA's control panel and would like to check out Catalyst - is that what my IGP would be using should I decide to go that route? If I should be going down a totally different path, please let me know as well. Your thoughts on this issue is greatly appreciated.
EDIT:
Forgot to mention that there's little to no gaming involved - mostly surfing/e-mails/watching videos.
Thanks!
