Mar 26, 2009 13:56 | #5 My experience with dual displays seems to find AMD/ATI generally better for support than nVidia, I have tried several cards from each manufacturer and I've had no end of weird faults with nVidia. This doesn't mean ATI Radeon cards are perfect but when it comes to media they are usually better. Some call me the Heilan' Laddie, but others call me Rob.
