Make sure the power supply is able to host the video card you plan on putting in it.
I would go with Intel but thats just because I never had an issue with them. (Think Apple PC debate) I would also go with windows pro If you are doing three screens I am going to assume you are a day trader or a gamer (I could be wrong) But if a day trader go with pro for just the encryption option of Pro |

Quoted: Triple monitors for what applications? The problem with the one you linked is it's only got a single HDMI out on it. Ideally you would want something native. A setup with multiple VGA/DVI/Display Ports ready for 3 monitors. Yup, I believe that computer doesn't have a discreet graphics card. The AMD A8 has the AMD Radeon HD 7560D built into it. |

Can someone recommend a decent desktop then? The only programs I will be running is Microsoft Office and a web browser.... I want the extra monitors for spread sheets. If thats all your doing it should be fine. I prefer Intel processors. Youre going to have to get a graphics card to run multiple monitors unless youre ok using a VGA for one. I went with this desktop. I use it connected to my TV for media. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883156019 Then get this graphics card. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125503 |
