Hi there, I have 4 identical monitors. So I decided to buy (not to expensive, around 100USD) quad head graphics card. I do not need anything particular. Only office applications, no gaming. The crucial thing is that I would like to be able to span a single window across all 4 monitors. I found following cards: Nvidia Quadro NVS440 Nvidia Quadro NVS420 Both are actually dual GPU. Could you please confirm which one of these cards may be configured as a single quad monitors DISPLAY using nouveau driver? What about the binary nvidia driver? Thanks in advance for any help. Greg

Both nouveau and the nvidia driver wil support them in a 4-monitor configuration, but there will be issues, esp with nouveau. Not sure about nvidia. If possible, get a Kepler-based card, which can drive 4 CRTC's from 1 GPU. That way you get none of the trouble. -ilia
