Extended display question


Recommended Posts

I just purchased a K410

I need to hook up two monitors via a digital signal for an extended display (not mirrored), but i only have one digital out (HDMI), the other is analog (VGA). So I'm pretty sure I need a new graphics card that has two DVI-D outputs OR one HDMI and one DVI-D output, b/c my monitors both have DVI-D inputs, but I already have a HDMI to DVI adapter cable. What graphics card should I replace the stock one with, and what's the deal with getting an extra power supply for it?

Will this work instead?

Tech support is so awful for Lenovo, multiple "technicians" either told me to get splitters or that I needed new monitors--all wrong. Thanks in advance.

Hi.

Before it gets too deep and you start spending money it wouldn't do any harm to do a little more research.

Lenovo do a range of Display Accessories. Are you quite sure there is no way you could integrate any of these to reach your goals ?

Back on to Lenovo first then, - and re-state your question, - asking how to best get the setup you require with their accessories. :)

The following links will get you on your way to deciding what you do, or do not require.
