I wonder if it is something that can split 1 dvi port into 2? Or any other solution that can make me get 3 monitors.
When i started boxing, i used 2 computers with 3 monitors. Now i have 1 pc, with only 2 monitors, and i really miss the 3. monitor..
I have a nVidia geForce GTX 260 btw
No. If you did do that you would just be mirroring the monitor you were spliitting -- It would be the same output splitQuote:

your current system would benefit from/utilize a new video card).
Thanks! =) Might go for another card then, hmm =)
IMO i would snatch up a GTX560 Ti while they are still pretty cheap, run 2 monitors off it and one of your 260. i do something similar to that but with the 3gb 580's
Thanks =) ...is it this http://www.komplett.no/k/ki.aspx?sku=622728 ? Norwegian site tho..
I like the 2GB models myself for us multiboxers:

Anything in that list besides the 2WIN version is fine if you can afford the slight price increase from 1GB to 2GB. Technically, that
2WIN card in the list can support 3 monitors on its own but, I have a feeling you might run into issues with that special dual-GPU
card while multiboxing.
Thank you! ...yes, ill go for 2GB, didnt see that one yesterday =)
There is also the Triple Head 2 go or Double Head to go. I've used this on a laptop to get four screens(including the laptop screen). It basically runs the extended desktop as one large very wide monitor.

The quality will obviously not be as good as a second card; I didn't have any issues using it however I wasn't gaming with it.
Seems like its about the same price (with shipping), so ill go for the card. Thank you for all replies =)
...now, if i only find a nice stand for 3 monitors im happy :D
