Triple monitors

A[L]C · 31 Jul 2008 at 08:50

Hi all,

We have a sff pc at work which we are currently running dual samsung plasma's off. We would like to add a third. Can anyone recommend a SFF triple monitor card, or would something like the Matrox TripleHead2Go Digital Edition be better?

Thanks
Paul

It depends, are they all going to be showing the same image? In which case I a simple cable splitter would work so one port outputs to two screens.

Otherwise the Matrox device is probably your best bet as there are no 'normal' graphics cards I'm aware of that have 3 outputs and the only other option would be to run two seperate cards which I'm guessing wouldn't fit in your case.

No, its not the same image unfortunately. Thought I might be pushing it with a triple head sff card

Nvidia Quadro. Loads of models to choose from, some take 2x monitors and some 4x monitors and you can get old models cheap on that auction site. The one on my work desk is driving 2 monitors but there are others who have 6 monitors. I guess they have dual cards though.
