Re: Is the i7 GPU enouth for two displays?

Thanks, this sounds great!

I thought is to extend my desktop on two displays that each run 1920x1200.

No gaming or heavy 3D will be done on this computer, just winform development. Ofcoudes some internet browsing also with flash and so on.

Is the i7 GPU [enough] for two displays?

Hi,

Im building a computer for work and Im thinking of using the built in GPU in i7, will this handle 2 Displays in 1920x1200 without problems?

I could add a fanless PCI-Express GPU but this will make the temp to raise a bit i guess?

BestRegards
