Suggestion for desktop configuration

[ansar.bedhar]

Hi,

I am looking forward to assemble a desktop system. Budget is not a constraint, yet wouldnt want to spend more than whats reasonable for my requirement.

Use case: Need to hook up 6 monitors. Heavy browser use (80 tabs ), amibroker application, 2 software development IDE in parallel, MS office, sometimes gimp, and a music player. Will run utorrent too with good number of torrents. PostgresDB server too. Adobe reader with 2 or 3 files open.

I would like to have your expert advice on the above. Any suggestion for good desktop configuration is highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

AB

You will need 3 Y splitters for the display, one for each port.

Thanks for your advice . Regarding y splitter, i intend to use 6 monitors for display extension rather than duplication. Can y splitter be used for display extension.

To support 6 monitors, you will need 2 graphics cards.
