i currently own a tahiti 7870 myst edition and just recently bought two shimian 2560x1400 monitors. i was wondering which is the best way to connect both to my 7870.
here are the options that i seem to have
1) buy a mini dp to dual link dvi adapter for $80
2) buy a second video card (radeon 5450) for $30 to run the second one.
3) upgrade to a nvidia card (dont really want to)
im leaning towards option 2. is there any disadvantage to this? the second monitor is only used to watch movies / second display for adobe photoshop / lightroom. ive heard people having issues with mini dp adapters .
