Hey guys, i wanna get 2 monitors to connect in dual screen mode, would u guys recommend the Samsung PX2370 or the Dell ultrasharp U2311H ?

Also, i am using an ATI Radeon HD5670 which if im not mistaken has a display port, so just say i wanna connect my pc to 3 things at the same time , i can connect my 32inch lcd tv to the HDMI port, and 1 monitor to the dvi port and another one to the display port right?

will the monitor connected through the display port and the other 1 connected through the dvi port have the same display quality?

Also, how much is a display port cable?

Any help is much appreciated, thanks.

hey guys, i just got my dual U2311Hs hooked up and 1 is using a display port cable and 1 more using a DVI cable. there is a noticeable yellow tint on the one using the DVI cable compared to they one using the display port, is it because of the type of cable used or is the monitor faulty? both are set to standard with the same brightness and contrast settings.


EDIT : I have swapped the cables and the same monitor is showing the same disturbing yellow tint. I am going to send it back.

If you swapped the cables with the monitors, does the same thing happen?
