Resolution question

[Laz.e.rus]

Nobbish question- never thought about it before.

My max resolution on my card is 2560x1600.

 

I can run TWO monitors at this resolution correct?

(GTX 275)

 

or say two monitors at 1920 x 1080 (more realistic).

You can extend your desktop, but without a 5000 series card, I dont think you can quite do what you're thinking for gaming. That is, you cant hook up 3 monitors to act as 1 monitor for gaming without the 5000 series.

 

You can hook up two monitors with different resolutions though, if you want.

 

Example of what I have done:

TV - primary @ 1920x1080

LCD - secondary @ 1680x1050

 

It's great for work for me, cause I need different windows open all at once.

 

The max resolution (I'm pretty sure) has to do with one output. You could buy a Dell 30" monitor that will take that resolution.

o wow Im nutz.

I was thinking about a couple work issues while I posted that one. I didnt think it through beyond "Ill post it in GC"...

 

Im already running a 1920x1080 w/ a 1200x1024.

 

1920 + 1280 = 3200 (meaning already greater than 2560)

 

 

Thanks for the response tho!

 

( I was thinking of running 2 at 1920. Only one main for gaming though - dualview)

yes you can run two. i'm currently running 2 x 24" monitors both at 1920x1200 with a single 8800gtx. current cards will run their max resolution on every output.

proving that "QFT" is, in fact, timeless.
