So I've decided to take the plunge and go for a dual monitor set-up.

I've decided on a couple of these (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-033-BQ) as they seem to be about the right size and rated very highly for the pricepoint.

My graphics card is pretty much the exact same as this (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-139-OK&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1830) with the two DVI-I inputs at the rear.

My question is whether the card is suitable for the dual monitor display and, as the monitors are DVI-D, which cables I'll need to purchase to ensure I get it all working correctly?

Many thanks.

Edit - Is it possible to get a dual link cable to do the job? That would mean I could use the other DVI-I input for connecting to my plasma TV.

Cheers. I don't do much gaming so I'm really just looking for normal use.

I'm not looking to duplicate the displays, I'm effectively looking to place the monitors side by side to achieve a resolution of 3840 x 1080.

Will I need two separate cables for that?

Edit - After further reading, I think I'm going to go for a couple of Samsung 2333T monitors instead to keep costs down.
