> 3 Monitor Setup on Mac Pro?

[Howardk]

I wish to spoil myself and would like to go with 3 x 24" monitors. . . is there a single video card for the Mac Pro that has 3 x DVI outputs that will each support 1920x1200 and fit in a single slot, leaving room for my 3 x PCI-e Digidesign cards? and that of course works with ProTools without any problems. . .

I have been working on this issue for a while.
To my knowledge there still isnt a card that will do this. But, I did buy an item called the Tipple Head 2 Go from Matrox. It was a bit of a pain in the ass to get it running because the control program runs on windows (needed a windows computer to configure it) but, once I got it running its doing a great job giving me three screens. (actually I have 4, one is from DVI 1 on the mac and the other three come from DVI 2)

I do not think there is a card that can do 3HDMI/DVI out. I dont know any pc cards that do that either. However the mac pro can do up to 8 monitors so you just have to add another video card. If anyone knows of a card that can do 3 please let me know I would like to at least look at it. We run multiple cards at our studio.

Oh i guess I should have pointed out that I had no slots left due to the HD cards in the mac pro otherwise yeah another video card will do the trick and give you four screens...

Yeah, that is a problem. i guess if you have $2500 to spend on a magma chassic you can do that. I use that with my HD3 setup so I can still add cards. I guess that box the other person pointed out is your best bet.
