    You can and it's not that difficult.

    Buy a computer with a PCIe x16 slot and a couple of regular PCI slots. Buy a high-end card for the PCIe x16 slot and a decent card for the PCI slot.

    Run the outside and one MIP view from the good card and run the other MIP view from the other PCI card.

    Instrument displays don't require that much processing power. Ask anyone running PM. Some are running PII's and PIII's for MIP displays.

    I'm running two instrument displays and an outside view on two cards with a 2.0Ghz Core 2 Duo machine and it runs perfect.

    Smile Thanks Michael

    I am quite keen to go down the Triplehead2Go route, that way I can upgrade my Pc at a later stage or the card within the Pc, Are the TH2G difficult to setup, or are they pretty much plug in and go!

    As far as I recal the T2G is quite easy to install, it comes with a CD and software which is next next and resolution setting and some
    other settings.

    p.s.
    Unofficial word from Matrox support, you can run two T2G on one pc
    So 2 high end VGAs + 2 T2G = 6 screens.

    Smile Thanks Ran,

    Your advice is greatly recieved.... I think the TH2G way is for me, as I feel more comfortable with the setup as I am not a great Pc tec person,

    Thanks again
