    Default 3 Screens

    Hello,

    I got a new graphics card about a month ago... And well I am dual screening with them. Well I got the old VGA one on the computer and just wondering if that can kinda be re activated as I try plugging in a screen into it and nothing happens.....

    Can I use this or not?

    Thanks Jamie.

    you can't use the vga port on the motherboard after you put in a graphics card. you could 3 screen but i'd imagine you would need splitters or sli or crossfire

    In theory, it is possible. Provided the motherboard supports allowing the integrated chip to be used with another card installed.

    For that price you might as well get a ATI 5xxx series card for less and get 3 displays
