Which video cards have separate Look Up Tables LUTs for dual monitors?

Are separate LUTs required to calibrate a dual monitor setup, and get the monitors to match?

I don't know what an LUT is but I have 2 motitors connected to my video card. 1 via DVI and 1 VGA. I managed to calibrate them both without problems with my Spyder 3 Pro.

Yes, you need a card that has serparate LUTs.

With only one, a display profile for only one is loaded, and doesn't display two profiles when you have two monitors attached.

I don't have particular model names, you might get thoughts on the Computers sub-forum:

But I did a quick search for "graphic card dual lut" and got a bunch of results:

If you have different monitors: Absolutely.
If you have two the same monitors: Preferably.
