    Can I play games (GTA V) on 3 monitors if 2 of the monitors are VGA?

    Thank you, my only problem is that I've already got one of the VGA's using my dvi-i adapter and I can't find a VGA - DVI-D adapter...I don't think they exist. I've found a vga - displayport adapter but it's like $30 and I wasn't really planning on spending that much on one.

    was given an old pc by people moving but it wont let me inter because of ctrl+alt+delete logon

    Not the proper site for this. Not necessarily saying you stole it, but that is exactly what somebody who stole a PC would say. You're going to have to get their password or re-format the system.

    Can I play games (GTA V) on 3 monitors if 2 of the monitors are VGA?

    Okay thank you. When you did it, did you need to adapt your VGA to something else? Or does your video card have a vga? Mine only has HDMI, DVI-I, DVI-D and DisplayPort.

    Can I play games (GTA V) on 3 monitors if 2 of the monitors are VGA?

    So I have a nice 1080p hdmi monitor that i am using to play gta v. I want to play it, as well as other games on 3 monitors but the other 2 monitors I have are 720p VGA only. I've heard that you can't do games on 3 monitors unless all the monitors have digital signals. Of course the VGA monitors...

    amd fx 8350 question about rig

    Yes the FX-8350 will make a big difference. I use one myself. 8-cores instead of 4 and they're clocked to 4.0ghz. Your games will run smoother and you'll be able to multi-task so easily. I play GTA V on Very High while streaming to Twitch and listening to music at the same time with the...

    Is my proposed setup good enough for triple monitor gaming?

    Well it will be able to game with 3 monitors but not 1080p, Ultra or 60fps. Probably need another video card for that. It's pretty hard for 1 card to do that.

    Playing Smite, Is it worth $15 upgrade from Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 to E8400

    So my girlfriend has a pretty crappy old PC that she literally only uses for playing Smite. Not even browsing the internet. Literally just Smite. I'm sure eventually there might be another game or 2 but they won't be anything intensive. She currently has an HD 6850 video card and an Intel Core 2...

    IS a 80+ Bronze 500w PSU good enough for an Fx-8350 and GTX 980

    Thank you all, that is the exact PSU I was thinking about getting except I was looking at the 750w model. It's nice to know the 650w will be good. Unfortunately, I don't have any money left over to buy it yet. I'm getting the video card on Friday but I'm not going to be able to get the power...

    Which 250gb SSD to get?

    Oh I didn't realize they were both pro. Honestly I would go with Samsung 850 EVO (not pro) but if you can get the pro for cheap you might as well. But either way get the 850.
