Monitors 5 & 6 can possibly run off of an Nvidia NVS 280 PCI card, but the max DVI res on it is 1600x1200. You want to run 6x, 1920x1200 monitors... your choices of video cards is sharply limited.
Ok cool. So I'll keep quadro get another quadro and motherboard that supports it and I should hopefully be set. Thanks so much for your help. I feel better now. This was getting frustrating!!! I now have 4 video cards and a motherboard to put on ebay!!! Any suggestions on a high end motherboard that supports the dual quadro's?
I don't know. There are a few ET'ers who run 2, Quadro Quads... perhaps they will chime in. Other alternative... get a mobo with 3 or 4 PCIE x16 slots and just get 3 or 4 Quadro NVS 290 or 285 PICEx16 cards. The dualhead cards will be significantly cheaper than 2, 440's...
i have my laptop which has an 8400gs and i have it hooked up to my big screen HD plasma through hdmi cable that can fit 6 charts and then of course my laptop screen wherei fit one chart and order entry
Just bought: ASUS RAMPAGE FORMULA LGA 775 Intel X48 ATX Intel Motherboard And this Video Card: PNY VCQ290NVS-PCIEX16-PB Quadro4 NVS290 256MB 64-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Low Profile Workstation Video Card To go with my NVS 440.... Hopefully this works!!!
Ha!!!! Don't scare me!! :eek: :eek: But on another note the NVS 440 is made by HPQ the 290 is made by PNY. I know I know I'm pushing it but do you think that may cause an issue?
Thats because Matrox were the first dual head cards to come out with independent desktops. In fact the whole dual head line by Matrox was developed for the financial services industry. John
