    Default Monitor Maniac (need video card advice)

    I like monitors, and lots of them, what i need is a videocard only taking up one Pci-E slot and and not covering any other slots, it needs to have 4 HDMI or DVI-D outputs

    My best bet so far is Quadro NVS 450, but is it capable of 5 wows

    I'd say no because Quadro's are meant too be for businesses and stuff like that. And there is no other cards that will have 4 DVI outputs or HDMI. Haven't really any benchmarks on a Quadro though. :/

    EDIT: Just looking at the stats of that thing I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it's gonna do worse than a 9500GT.

    9500GT is only a little bit better than the 8500GT though. But yeah, think the 4850X2 and the 4870X2 has 4 DVI outputs.

    Playing on a Laptop then? Hmm, yeah only the 4850X2 then. But I guess if 2 4850 can handle 5 WoW's the X2 can too. Dunno how well it'd do with 4 30" though. :P

    I am using 3 LCD with my current setup. http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/in...D=26&type=page

    Wotlk was too much of a hog for my previous q6600 setup so I had to add a 2nd pc. My original pc is running 1 lcd in crossfire on 2 3870 512meg cards. My new pc is running 3 wows on 2lcd with the card I linked. If you had a powerful pc you can run wow on 4 LCD monitiors with that card. I have my fps capped at 50fps on the pc that runs the card I linked. If you are wanting more than 2 DVI outs on 1 card the one I linked is your only & best option.
