Upgrading Time !!

The card can support dual monitors?

I'm assuming I have to buy a splitter?

No you would either need a display port or an HDMI adaptor.

I had a quick check on Scan is selling the 2nd revision of the Gigabyte card with a slightly lower 1050MHZ clockspeed instead of the 1100MHZ in length. However,the Gigabyte card is faster than the MSI and appears to use a larger cooling fan. From what I gather the MSI is around 0.2" shorter though.

Both cards can run over two monitors out of the box. The monitor you were looking at, can use HDMI and DVI which both cards have. You will need to check what cables are included with the monitor though. You can use an HDMI cable or a DVI cable for the monitor. Also an HDMI to DVI cable or adaptor should work fine too.

6400 will just run at 5300 speeds if the motherboard cannot support the higher ones. The same is true if you mix different speed sticks on the same motherboard, they will all revert to the lowest common denominator

If I know HP they might of already put faster RAM in just for the sale speak and the mobo is clocking it down already.

I'm trying to find out how much it would cost me to upgrade to Windows 7; tried looking on the MS website and all I'm seeing is Learn More or Compability download.

Am I looking in the wrong place?

Got my stuff; comps upgraded! Loving it!

Thanks Guys

P.s. How do I get a cheap version of Windows 7 to upgrade to 64-bit?
