Hello all, hoping someone can give me some help here as I do not know a whole heap about computers.
I have a dell precision workstation 690, here is the ad
"Dell Inc., Precision WorkStation 690, Workstation, Black, 1 X Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 5160 @ 3.00GHz, 2048MB RAM, 320GB SATA HDD, 48 Speed HL-DT-ST DVD+/-RW GSA-H53N, 0 KB NV18GL [Quadro FX 550], No Operating System, NetXtreme BCM5752 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express, 631xESB/632xESB High Definition Audio Controller, FDD, 7 USB Ports, 1 Firewire port"
I have installed windows xp pro, but am happy to install windows 7 if neccissary.
It has 1 big pcie slot, 3 small pcie slots, 1 pci slot and 2 pcix slots.
My monitors (5 x 17" & 1 x 22") have dvi & vga inputs, a couple of usb slots and a small (1cmx1cm) tapered sqaure slot.
I am looking at the radeon eyefinity 6 video card http://www.amd.com/us/products/deskt.../overview.aspx but am not sure whether it is compatible with my components. I am happy to use 2 or 3 cards if this is the best way (my computer came with a dual dvi card that fits into the large pcie slot). I am also happy to buy convertor cables if my monitors are not compatible with the video card/s output/s.
Any help would be appriciated.
Cheers all
