[22:04] <xubuntu28w> can i ask hardware questions here?
[22:05] <knome> if it's related to xubuntu, yes
[22:05] <knome> otherwise you are likely better at ##hardware or something similar
[22:05] <xubuntu28w> I want to use Xubuntu on five monitors as an extended desktop - I have four x16 slots available - what is the most supported card for me to get? I have the most recent version of Xubuntu
[22:08] <knome> i'm running a dual-monitor setup with an nvidia card and no problems there - i use the proprietary driver, but i've understood the free driver is getting better by the day as well
[22:09] <knome> i don't know if there are any optimus cards for desktops, but i'd avoid those as they are known to be not fully supported yet
[22:09] <xubuntu28w> nvidia is well supported?
[22:10] <knome> better than amd
[22:10] <knome> well, that's my personal opinion and experience....
[22:10] <xubuntu28w> well thats something to go off of
[22:16] <xubuntu28w> if I don't play games and watch streaming video mostly, how much does graphic card video memory matter?
[22:16] <pencilandpaper> You should be alright to watch videos xubuntu28w .
[22:16] <pencilandpaper> As long as you have the proper graphics drivers installed if necessary.
[22:16] <knome> i'm no hardware expert, but i would guess if you buy any modern GPU, you should be fine
[22:18] <xubuntu28w> Ebay has them with 512mb ... I'm a little hesitant
[22:26] <xubuntu28w> Ok, will Xubuntu support a dual monitor card like: NVIDIA Quadro FX 4800
