    Hi all,

    I started a thread here about setting up five digital menu boards and I think I am settled on running them from two standard graphics cards so my question is which ones?

    i don't know much about AMD cards but from what I remember the Eyefinity set up should do what I want and I'm sure the same can be achieved with nVidia but which cards will be the best for what I need?

    Ideally they will have the same video connection to make cabling and management easier but this is essential as long as all the connections are digital.

    As far as I'm aware, you don't need EyeFinity unless you're gaming across the screens. Essentially you just need outputs so given they're just running 2D applications, any old card would do. Something like a HD5450 from the AMD side or anything 4xx series or later from nVidia.
