[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1704954, member: 56379"] Not true. These adapters are only needed for OLD Apple monitors with ADC video ports (these monitors are about 10+ years old now). The video adapters you need (mini display port)…can be purchased for about $5-$10 each.:) This is the resolution for a single monitor (the Apple 30" display). Not sure if the 5770 could run three 30" Apple monitors simultaneously. You probably won't have three of these anyway.;) Forget the single video card idea.;) Much easier to just purchase multiple video cards. I had a Mac Pro 4,1 with four GT-120 video cards in it (not a very powerful card)…and had 8 monitors running simultaneously (two monitors/video card). Multiple video cards are the way to go. Figure one-two monitors/card.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
