  1. Add third monitor - graphics card?


    My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3. It does not appear to have an "on-board" vga.

    My graphics card is a GeForce 6600 GT. I am using both digital outputs for the two monitors present.

    My monitors are a pair of Asus VS228H-P

    I am not a gamer, but do appreciate a crisp display. I mainly run general business programs such as word processor and spreadsheet, internet browser, email, and sometimes enjoy watching a movie or video.

    I wish to add a third monitor.

    Two questions-

    • Would using my old Acer P201w be a mistake in the long run, in that I can get another Asus VS228 for under $100?
    • What would the least expensive graphics adapter solution be that would maintain comparable quality?
    I'm afraid I have been away from tech for too long and am a bit on the penny-pinching side right now. I suspect that I should purchase the new third monitor, but am completely lost when it comes to the adapter card-

    Thank-you very much for your consideration and expertise.

    :)

    I have to have a 3-monitor Windows 10 installation. How do I do it?

    I am presently running with two monitors. I want to add a third. I am looking for people that have three monitors running under Windows 10 in order to find out what graphics board, etc. that they are using in order to do this.

  3. Adding a third monitor

    I have 2 monitors connected to my windows 10 HP desktop. I am trying to add a third through USB with no luck (NO SIGNAL). My display adapter is an Intel(R) HD Graphics 630. The third device is a Visio tv/monitor. I am using a HDMI to USB converter.
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
