hi

I have a 15-inch TFT and 17 TFT Apple Studio display on my desk not doing mush at the moment so I thought I would get a cheap PCI graphic card and have a dual display set-up for my tool pallets.

The Q is.

Can I use the 15 TFT as a dual set-up. The thing I am worried about is the resolution of the monitors. The 15 TFT run at 1024x820 and the 17 TFT Apple Studio display is 1280x1024. Can I still have dual set-up and run at the deferent resolutions

My set-up is G4 1Ghz 1GB Ram OSX 10.3


Any advise would be very aprecateded

Yes t will work, the different resolutions won't matter and neither will the size.
If both of these displays are ADC you will need a card with dual DVI outputs, then two DVI-ADC converters.
