Running 4 monitors

[janfpl]

A client needs to run 4 monitors at once, can I buy any two dual output cards to accompish this? Do i need to SLI or Crossfire?

SLI and Crossfire are designed to use multiple cards on a single full screen output.

Please buy a pair of GPUs with dual outputs.

+1 to mindless...depending on what he is doing and what mother board you have, the 4850x2 is probably the best solution.

Thats a bit expensive.. im looking for the cheapest solution to run 4 monitors. I guess I could pick up 2 8400GS's for 29$ each. I think he plays multiple tables of poker simultaneously so good performace cards aren't needed. What do you guys think if I picked up 2 PCI video cards? Thanks for the replies!

I like to play online poker as well, but instead of 4 monitors, it would be better to resize the tables and run them all on one big monitor...a lot less hectic looking around all the time.
