Dear all,


I'm actuary planning to get a new rig and to set up a rig with dual monitor, cool2.gif

the problem is, im not going to throw my old monitor which is LG flatron 19" ( non wide )

Need some opinion over here, will it be wierd if i pair it with a 24" /27" wide screen monitor?


Beside that, what other requirement i need for a dual monitor set up?

such as GPU/PSU/motherboard? rclxub.gif

Thank you all for the advice and helping notworthy.gif

what problem were you expecting? its as easy as plug and play. im pairing my 1440p and 1080p with no issues

unless you count the difference in PPI, which youll get used to it soon

what requirements? as long your GPU/mobo have multiple display output connectors. PSU doesnt matter since monitors have their own PSU anyway

Hi, if I would like to purchase dual monitor. Which part of my hardware needed to support that? VGA card with dual output monitor or how?

Card these days have more than 1 output.

You need to find monitors that support those input.

If your card has VGA + DVI + HDMI but your monitor is only DisplayPort then it would be a problem.
