Hi

I want to buy a TriplelHead2Go digital Edition my video card is an EVGA e-GeForce 8800 GTS, and I have 3 HP 19" LCD Monitor

http://www.amazon.com/HP-P8725AA-19-LCD-Monitor/dp/tech-data/B00094NNHY/ref=de_a_smtd

I do not know if TH2Go will work with the hardware I own at this moment

I know that I should upgrade my video cards and my monitors but at this moment I can not spend much more money, 2 scenarios:
Upgrade my video cards and monitors - no TH2Go
Do not upgrade my video cards and monitors - TH2Go

Any help, suggestions, advice are more than welcome

Thank you

starwarsmex

TH2G should work no problem, but I wouldn't recommend buying a new TH2G unit now. My advice: look for a second hand Digital Edition unit, or give up bezel corection and go for the Analog version (which should be much cheaper).

Depending on your budget and favorite games, upgrading your GPU and getting a nice widescreen monitor instead would actually be the best solution IMHO. 15:4 TripleHead on an old GPU is cool, but a comfy widescreen setup (that you can consider upgrading to a triple-display later) is even better, don't you think ?

Thank you for your advice the problem is TH2G is made in China, I live in Mexico City, I have to pay more money in taxes due the duty import, than the cost of the TH2G believe me!!, just because the device is made in China, I had contact ebayers and asked them to ship with the legend "sample or gift" and they do not want to ship to Mexico this way.

Maybe in this forum in a near future I will search for a second hand TH2G for me and some friends that really want to live the "Multi-Monitor gaming xperience". and a seller than want to ship to Mexico as I asked, this way I only will have to pay the S&H

For Now I will upgrade my CPU and my monitors

is even better, don't you think ?

Yes, I do, is better

Thank you very much for your advices :bowdown

Regards

American eBay sellers won't ship this way because it is illegal to mark something as "sample" or "gift" if it's a normal commercial purchase (like eBay is). There are steep fines for doing this for the purpose of avoiding paying the duties on international postage.
