Quote from burnin:
Had bad experience with appian rushmore (quad output dvi).
System kept crashing
too much goin on to refresh all data.
Now, instead, i added another system , networked them and use 2 moniters on trading system using nvidia tnt2 Model 64.
Works great have never crashed since
IMO too many moniters just gives you too much to look at.
If your a fund manager or working at a large firm perhaps u may need all that.
If your trading remotely IMO 3 moniters is enuf -- 2 moniters on trading system, one for all your "other stuff".
Glad you mentioned this. I was going to buy that video card.
Im not sure, but any decent new system should be outfitted with a card that can support at least 2 moniters. Nvidias are the cheapest...matrox and appian are expensive.
btw.... appian tech support told me that my crashing had to be result of my substandard system...nice respoinse after i spent $500+ on that pos.
BEWARE- more expensive doesnt always mean better performance.
