Welcome to the forum :)

Pretty sure all modern gpus and even apus will allow you to mirror your display as you state.

Which one to buy? Depends on your budget and intended uses.

Thanks for your anwer Kenmitch,

Basically, we have a pc (in clon mode) in wich we connect two monitors,

1.-one of it is for the user and
2.-Second is for the client to see especific information.

When the client ends see the information (in second monitor) the user opens the windows media player, the WMP opens in both screens, using (Full screen video mirror with nview configuration) the user is able to minimize the media player in his monitor to continue working but in the client monitor its continue playing in full screen the WMP.

We have a doubt about if this funtion is still available in new cards.

My configuration In nview panel this option is :

Full Screen Video and then in Zoom Control i select "video mirror" and the full screen device i select "Second Monitor"

In conclusion: Full Video in Second Monitor with clon mode.

I hope i had explained right. :rolleyes:

Thanks and regards.

What is clon mode?

Clon = Clone = Mirror

Kawax your welcome :)

What you describe should be possible with newer cards. I only have a single display running Win 8.1 currently with so I'm unable to test it out.

Pretty sure somebody will come along and be able to test out your scenario for you.
