I have a new PC with a Matrox 550 Dual Head Graphics card, recommended by my dealer for 2- dimensional work (pictures). I have two tube monitors, one of which is ancient, the other perfectly good (5 yrs. old). I wanted to use those two with my Matrox 550 Dual Head, one for the pictures, the other for the palettes.
Now I see that the best of the two monitors flickers and wavers and is unbearable to look at. My dealer said to try the other one (which I have still connected to another PC), to see if it is the card or the interaction card/monitor. Or he suggested that I perhaps buy a new monitor. That would mean a TFT. A good quality TFT of at least 20" is expensive, so I am thinking of giving up the idea of having two monitors and to use one bigger one instead. However, who guarantees that I’ll not have the flickering issue with a new monitor as well?
So can someone tell me if they experienced that kind of problem with Matrox 550 Dual Head? And also which monitor would be recommendable for use with the Matrox 550 Dual head? Thank you for a reaction.
