RE: [OT] Windows XP & Multiple Monitors

["David Harris" <dh140770@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry to be pedantic but to run 5760 x 3600, you would need 9 of those
Dell
2405FPW's I would think.

It's still more than enough desktop space that you have methinks .. I
'survive' on just the one 2405FPW.

It's a great monitor

All the best

Yes it will!

I've run various configurations:

Matrox Parhelia with dual monitors and a PCI Matrox G450 running a third -
all at 1920x1200 res. The PCI card is quite sluggish for anything but 2D
apps though.

My main PC currently runs a NVIDIA 7800 GTX (expensive!) with 2 x Dell
2405FPW 1920x1200 and an NVIDA 6600GT with a third Dell 2405FPW at
1920x1200. If I turn one off, it's like losing an arm or leg!

Total screen res is 5760 x 3600 !

Paul.
