Hi
I have a Dell T7400 with Dual Quad E5405's (I think) they are about 2ghz processors. I have 3 PNY NVS 290 video cards (256meg each) hooked to 6 Dell 24 inch displays.
I am getting cursor jumping and trails, also when I move a window on the screen it seems to detach parts of itself as it moves.
I am not a computer person but believe this has something to do with refresh and video memory.
I use eSignal stretched across 3 displays and then have a browser with a Java/flash chat, and another small Java program running simultaneously.
I have 6big of RAM and the CPU's never get much above 20% usage unless If I pop another page it will send one CPU into 100% for a few seconds then settle down again.
I have a 50meg broadband hookup to the house
So am I correct the most likely culprit is the video cards?
I do not do any gaming on this computer its for work only. So would going to the NVS 300 (512meg- 256 per display) solve the issue? I like the NVS cards because they have no fan and large heat sinks. They also leave sufficient space between cards, for the fans to keep the case and cards cool.
I have the newest drivers installed. I think I have given all the information needed, if not let me know, thanks
Any help would be appreciated.
