Hi, I do not play games, only use two tft screens to edit my own photography. What is the best dual monitor graphics card at a reasonable price please.
I just got a new PC for image editing and I swapped the Matrox G450 Dual Head out of my old PC into the new one. Works great! You can get G450s pretty cheap on eBay .
For me, the colour issue doesn’t matter as the second monitor is for pallettes and ancillary stuff. Apparently the G650 allows for different colour profiles for each attached monitor, if you need it.
Not sure about interfaces for TFT, but I’d expect some of the Matrox cards to handle it.
I’ve been very happy with Matrox anyway (Having the G450 and a G200 before that).
The only possible issue I guess is whether Matrox survive, as a company, and the availability of drivers. They seem to have given up on the 3D/gaming market, leaving nVidia and ATi to battle it out. If they survive in their own niche, all well and good. Probably doesn’t matter in a practical sense though, as you’d have drivers for anything you are running now, and by the time lack of new drivers became an issue we’d be talking about old kit needing replacement anyway.
