Comment: I had originally purchased a competitor product, which was slightly less expensive, to run in my computer with dual monitors. After hours of messing with it, I decided to cut my losses and look for another product. I purchased this board, installed it and its drivers, and it just worked beautifully with no problems at all. I would recommend this product.

Comment: I used this card (after trying 2 others) to extend my desktop adding a 3rd monitor. It works seamlessly with my main card. A little expensive, but worth every penny.

Comment: The card was installed in a machine running Windows Vista. Installation was very simple with no unexpected issues. The card is driving a 19in. LCD monitor and a Sony 42in. LCD TV. Picture is great on both. Resolution is the same on each display and expanded the desktop across both. Great product.

FireMV 2250 256MB DDR2 Workstation Graphics Card
ATI?s FireMV? multi-view 2D workstation acceleration cards are designed exclusively
for the financial and corporate marketplaces. Offering dual and quad monitor
cards based on the PCI and PCI Express bus architecture, FireMV? products ensure
system compatibility and investment protection.
Note: A DMS-59 Adapter Cable is included, providing
dual monitor support.
Maximum Flexibility in a Unique, Compact Design
The FireMV? series of professional 2D graphics cards boasts innovative low profile
dual monitor design which means that all FireMV cards will fit into both Low
Profile and Full Height systems. This enables integration into a wide range
of machines with a smaller number of cards to qualify. The same applies for
the new low profile FireMV? quad monitor cards - their super space efficient
architecture lets you choose even the smallest systems ? including docking stations
? and still be able to achieve.
The FireMV? design utilizes passive cooling for a higher mean time between
failures (MTBF) providing greater reliability. Its inherently lower power consumption
helps reduce the overall power load without sacrificing performance?an
increasingly important benefit to sites with a large installed user base.
More Memory, Stability and Flexibility
This FireMV? card features 256MB of dedicated on-board memory for each
display to enable maximum stability and unparalleled performance (total on-board
memory ranges from 64MB to 256MB depending on product configuration). To provide
added flexibility, dual FireMV? cards can be combined to drive even more
displays.
