Eyefinity was designed to run video games across 3 monitors.

If you're running a trading rig, why not get TRADING VIDEO CARDS? You know... those DESIGNED to work in 4-8+ monitor rigs.

Here's a suggestion.. Nvidia Quadro NVS Line... designed from day-1 to run multi-monitor... and have been doing so for more than 10 years.

Of course you CAN pound a nail with a pipe wrench. However a hammer works better. Proper tool for the job.

Whats a good model around $150-$200 most of them i checked only run 2 monitors. I am interested in running 4 monitors.

Nvidia NVS makes a 440 and a 450... quad-port video cards which you can usually pick up used on eBay for around $75-$225.

There is also the possibility that you could run 2, NVS 285/290/295 dualheads. You'd need 1, x16 card and 1, x1 card. With your budget mobo, however, no assurance you could run an x16 and x1 video card simultaneously... you'd just have to try it to find out. (If you had an X58 mobo, you could almost certainly run both an x16 + x1.)

The 2, dualhead NVS cards... maybe $80-$125, total.
