Hey Allan,
I'm having a hard time finding the memory you have posted ( micron ) is there another one that can replace that one? is ther anthing better out there now? I thank you for giving me the (cojones) needed to take on a project like this.
Keep up the good work!

Hey allan
does the ATI Radeon card support dual LCD displays? if so how would you connect them , the card states it only has one DVI port.

Thanks again

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Hey Brian,
Good to hear from you my friend.
That is just under the average for XP2100 which is about 32+3. The XP2500+ is getting some great results as is the XP2800+.
Hope all is going well in your life. Send me an email and catch me up on your triplets.

how about the 3000 is it doing any better than the 2800?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Not all LCD's require the DVI port / connector. Many use the standard 15 pin. I bought a 15" a while back from a local dealer for about $250, which doesn't have the DVI connector - just the standard one. You might prefer the DVI connecotr on the monitor, but if you don't care one way or the other, then you can certainly find affordable and good looking LCD's that will work just fine with your ATI card.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">No results published yet. I've only seen one system built so far with the 3000.
