The boss has given us the go ahead to get some graphics cards and another TFT each. We are five in the office and will be using VGA input (only) TFT monitors.
Now just to find a good enough graphics card to run two monitors with no problem. Obviously it does not have to be high specs, not much games will be played (only the odd Unreal of Quake over lunch time). And cost will be something to consider, because it is for 5 PCs.
Found this card, Radeon 9550 256MB DDR VGA, would that be good enough to run two TFTs at 1280x1024 each if we get DVI to VGA adapter as well? Cost for this card is around the £40 mark.
Edit: Should add this is our motherboards - Intel D865GLC. Its got a Universal 0.8/1.5 V AGP 3.0 connector supporting 1x, 4x, and 8x AGP cards or an AGP Digital Display (ADD) card; would that be ok?
Thanks
