Hi,
I recently got a new computer at work, and I'm hoping you can help me. The video card it came with has a single DVI output and an S-video output, but I'd really like to use both flat screen monitors I have on my desk (both monitors have both a DVI and a VGA input).
Is the best thing just to connect the computer to a dvi splitter that then runs a cable to each monitor? Or would I be better off getting a new video card with 2 outputs? Even though this is at work, I have to pay to be able to use 2 monitors, so I'd like the most cost-effective solution possible. I won't be playing too many games or videos on it, so it's not critical to have the absolute best quality, but I don't want the screens to be blurry.
Any help or advice is much appreciated.
My comp specs are:
comp = dell inspiron 530s
proc = dual core 2.66 mhz
os = Windows Vista
video card = 128mb nvidia geforce 8330 gs
Thanks,
--gdm
