#Dell optiplex 210l dual monitors Pc#
There's Y cables - connect to 1 video card on the PC and then connect 2 monitors on the other end of the cable What are your thoughts / recommendations for the 'right' way to set up 2 monitors on a dell optiplex desktop computer? We've put around 300 Micro's in and haven't had any issues For a wider choice in configurations you may want to step down to Small Form Factor or Micro's. I think Dell may be doing away with the Tower and Mini Towers in the OptiPlex line and will just offer them in the Precision line. Are you wanting Towers, because I see on my page that 7070 Mini towers in Optiplex line are limited to Ships fast models. Of course I'm speaking of Micro's not towers. Whoever you talking to at Dell may be just offering you "Ships Fast" machines which have limited configuration options. When I configure the computers on my Premier Page I have the option to add an additional DP port or VGA port. Phildrew warsawtech What card are you spec'ing to get the 2 DP?Ĭhris.hone.5688 when I hear of VGA, I think (incorrectly?) that it doesn't do the high resolution that HDMI / DP can do? Or does DP support 2 monitors through 1 connector? Get a cable that can do that?Ģ) different monitor that has hdmi and dp? Sales says those have DP and VGA connections.ġ) Adapter to go from HDMI on PC to DP on monitor? The guy at dell didn't think that exists / is not a good idea? But I found them. I was planning on getting 2 E2417H monitors (low cost but good, right?) on the optiplex 30, they say they come with an HDMI and DP port. Harder to service, some parts are unique and parts are typically more expensive Similar thinking concerning the all in one computers. Nothing rigidly analyzes - just their memory over time that the smaller boxes have more issues. Is there any issue for you on these mini- micros? shorter life than a tower? How long do you get the warranties for? Do the computers get used after the warranty?Ī couple IT consultants I look up to have sworn off the smallest boxes because of their feelings of short life/ more hardware problems with smaller boxes.

Is that the one you’re talking about? And what happened to what they’d call SFF - small form factor?Īnd as I think I’ve mentioned I am paranoid/nervous about dust & heat Build up and replacement parts when it’s out of warranty.the power supplies are more custom / more expensive than mini tower atx power supplies?
