    Turning off displayport monitor resets desktop

    Do you have anything that shows what pins need to be either covered or removed? I wouldnt mind buying a new cable to give this a shot. I have an Asus PA246Q but I dont see anything about keeping source detection active all the time but I'll keep looking. Thanks

    Need a new video card for a third monitor

    Thanks I was looking through ATI stuff and I just have no idea how they stack up compared to a 4870 cause video card naming is confusing as fuck. I dont need something so fast that its a waste of cash but I know you can buy a newer series card thats slower than old ones. Seems like anything...

    Looking to get a second monitor

    would it be bad to mix brands? I've heard good things about the HP ZR24W I think this might be the best option to just go with a 24" It keeps the second monitor close to the main one since its not that much bigger, and gives me some extra space. I was thinking if I went big with a 27 or 30"...
