Hi,

I have a hackintosh running 10.7.4 with a Geforce 9500GT 1GB. I currently have 2 displays connected to it which is the maximum this card supports.

I want to connect my third monitor and I am not sure how should I:

Get a cheap Ati Radeon 9200 PCI which works with mac os x?

Get a USB to DVI/VGA adapter?

Both would cost abou the same amount - but which one would be better?

Thanks,

Seb
 
Sell your 9500GT and get a 6870? (and connect up to 4 monitors)
-- just throwing this option out there.

Hmm yes I could, but I only have a Pentium G620, and a weak power supply. My cpu would then be a bottleneck as graphics card would be way faster. I also unfortunately dont have the money.

Is there any cheaper single card that supports triple screens with mac os x?

Thanks for the help,

Seb
 
What kind of motherboard do you have? I have 3 screens using 2 on the GPU and 1 on the intel integrated graphics. You could try that.
