2 Graphiccards
Hi there,
I want to use a second monitor for working with AVID DV. Do I have to buy myself a dualhead-card, or does a additional PCI-card serve??? I´m using a TNT2 AGP (32MB/WinXP) right now, and I´m thinking of buying another one for a PCI-slot. Thanx |

First off do you do any gaming?
I would recommend you pickup a dual head for the reason being of improved 2D performance over what you have now. If you don't care about gaming I'm sure you could pick up one of those Matrox dual-heads pretty cheap. |

If you want to game with dual monitor then you would be better off with some newer card that has dual heads.
