Munky^ Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 As topic - on a tight budget and would like to get dual monitor support working, without too much of a headache. Thanks for any advice.

macgirl Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Look at the Natit Forum on the X Labs Section, but I gues it would be the 6200, not sure about the 5200 (Geforce of course) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41383-cheapest-supported-graphics-card-for-dual-monitors/#findComment-296531 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartan015 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 5200 should have dual monitors but 6200 is worth it to get rather then the 5200.

Purple Puppy Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 If all else fails, buy two cheap (really cheap) graphics cards and install them (if you have 2 empty slots) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41383-cheapest-supported-graphics-card-for-dual-monitors/#findComment-301542 Share on other sites More sharing options...
errandwolfe Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 I just paid $130 for my nVidia 7600 GS (256 MB RAM). Works great with dual screen.

Purple Puppy Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 That hardly is the cheapest though. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41383-cheapest-supported-graphics-card-for-dual-monitors/#findComment-302498 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bikedude880 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Lets see... 7300GS - ~$80 7300GT - ~$110 Both work perfect for what I do.

Purple Puppy Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 lol isn't it ironic that geforce 7300 is so cheap and offers so little performance for hardcore gamers, yet the Apple website is toting its 24" imac's geforce 7300 as if it were the most powerful graphics card in the world, second only to the 7600?
