Video Card for VMs, four displays

[RussellinSacto]

Hi,

 

I don't do gaming at all - but might tinker a little with that new Cityscapes Skylines game...

 

I want to use my new UnRaid 6 machine as my desktop computer - with four displays:

Sharp 65" TV - VGA or HDMI

Wacom Cintiq 12" drawing tablet - DVI

NEC 19" display - DVI-D

NEC 15" display - VGA

 

I mostly use the TV for everything - the two small displays for keeping an eye on downloads and the sort; the tablet for photo editing, of course.

 

I've never bought a video card before...  Motherboard video was always adequate.  I'd like something a little future-proof, but I'm not into video games, so I don't need horsepower.  Should I do display ports and a bunch of adapters, or what do you suggest?  I can do a couple hundred dollars.

 

(I can get model numbers for the above displays if that's helpful.)

 

I was looking at the 750TI, it seems highly suggested here - but I don't know how to know if I can use it for the above displays.

If this is really worth it, this is about the top of my price range: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125777

Is this for a single VM?

Does your motherboard and cpu support device passthrough?

Hi Brit,

 

Excellent questions.  I understand my motherboard and CPU support passthrough (Gigabyte MU70-SU0 with Intel 6core Xeon).

 

I am hoping to get the tablet, TV, and one display on the most complex VM.  :-)
