November 13, 200619 yr I currently have a Viewsonic 21.3" viewable LCD monitor. I am looking to get a very simple 15" monitor to use only for when I control online with VRC. My Viewsonic native resolution is 1200x1600. I have a X850XT 256mb card. I have my main monitor plugged into the DVI slot. I have an open VGA slot I want to use. Can I use this and keep my main monitor set at 1600x1200. I know the smaller one will be a lower resolution but that is ok. Will getting a smaller monitor to use with the VGA connection screw up the main monitor? Do both have to be the same resolution? Thanks in advance. Eric

Use dual monitor mode and you can independently set screen resolutions and refresh rates.Gary 9800X3D | 4090 | 64GB | 2+1TB NVME | 2TB SSD | 2TB HDD | 85/50/43” TVs | Quest 3 | DOF H3 Motion Rig | Buttkicker | T.16000M Flight Kit MSFS @ 4K Ultra DLSS Performance FG 80 FPS | VR VDXR Godlike 80Hz SSW | MSFS VR DLSS Quality, Ultra Preset - Windows 11 Acer Nitro 5 | i5-11400H | RTX 3060 6 GB | 32GB DDR4 | 15.6" FHD IPS 144Hz | 2 x 512 GB SSD | Windows 11
