m1ddy Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 Finally decided to sort my dual monitor solution. Quick question, does anyone know off hand what interface a Dell Opti 745 has. I "think" its pci-e but too sure. Also dunno if its x1 or x16. I either need a riser card for these chassis (desktop) or a low profile dual head card. All needs to be less than £40 ideally. Anyone give me any advice on any of the above? Ta
Domino Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 I put a matrox dual head in my bosses optiplex not long ago, think it was one of these Matrox Millennium G550 Graphics Card Graphics Card G55MDDAP32DBF - PC World Business Online Store UK - Buy The Best Deals Online.
m1ddy Posted July 2, 2008 Author Posted July 2, 2008 Seems a bit pricey for that spec card? Also, it only seems to have one head? or am i being a tard. Jon
Domino Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 indeed you are its a dual head, but theres a split cable that plugs into that adapter on the back. Give your local PCWbusiness dept a ring, they should be able to do an educational price
Busybub Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 745 is definitely PCI-E Best bet is probably an ATI jobbie with either a Y-splitter that gives you one DVI-D and VGA, or dual DVI or dual VGA (depends on the card) MCS Technology Ltd should have some listed under video cards
