Hi,
I have three 23 inch screens on my desk which I use for office stuff.
On another wall on the other side of the room have an old TV which I'm going to replace with two 21 inch monitors (acquired for free).
The three main monitors are used for office use, software development. YouTube. iPlayer sky go etc. Occasionally I use it for light gaming but I don't play much at all any more and nothing recent.
The other two new monitors will scroll through CCTV, play iPlayer etc. Nothing particularly intense.
My knowledge is really quite out of date now. As is my PC I guess so I need a little help with this.
Specs:i7 3770 / 12 GB / Radeon HD7800 2GB
Motherboard appears to have one pcie16 slot occupied by the HD 7800 and two free PCIE1 slots.
Do I swap the HD7800 for something that can do all 5? Or add a PCIE1 card in addition just for the two new monitors? If so which card.
I assume using the onboard graphics with the HD7800 is troublesome.
The three current monitors all have DVI VGA and DP. The two additional ones have DP and I think DVI.
Thanks
