Dual Monitor Question

[Darren555]

I currently run a Samsung SyncMaster 2232BW monitor with my ATI HD 5850 and want to add a second monitor.

The card has two DVI outputs so I assume it can run 2 x DVI screens?

Also, is it best to use monitors with matching screen resolutions?


Cheers,

Darren

Ok I'm an idiot

Just unwrapped my nice new Benq G2222HDL and realised that my graphics card has 1 x DVI, 1 x HDMI and 1 x Display Port.

I already have a DVI male - male cable so am I right in assuming that I just need one of these to get up and running with dual displays?

Is this gonna affect the image quality/resolution or will it work as normal?


Cheers,
