Video Card

  • Today, I need to order the new video card for our new desktop.

  • On that note, I will need a DVI splitter cable ($20?)
  • Looking over my notes from last time, I see that I listed 512MB ATI RADEON HD4670,Dual DVI/ plus single DVI VGA adapter
    • Dual DVI ports would solve the splitter problem. I will look into this card a bit more and see what I can find out about it.
