Sapphire VID-2X

[Skyguy]

Sapphire’s latest peripheral is the VID-2X. What the VID-2x does is take a single video output from your desktop or laptop and gives you double the pixels across two monitors. This device doesn’t just stretch the same 1080p image across two monitors; it actually scales up to a resolution of 3840x1200 when two 1920x1200 monitors are connected. Sounds intriguing.

Neat little gadget..

First off, awesome review Clayton. I love the tone of your writing. And the line about mooching off mom was very funny. You really have a knack for this. As someone who writes for a living, I can tell you as a certainty that writing skills like yours are few and far between. Keep up the good work!

This would be a nice addition to a laptop docking station or your run-of-the-mill office PC with onboard graphics. However, for less money than this gizmo, you can buy an HD 6870 and run dual monitors off of it with a lot more horsepower at your disposal for work/play. I guess this device is good for someone who owns a prebuilt PC that doesn't want to upgrade their PSU and install a new GPU.

It also good for laptop users. I have a standard issue laptop from work. It runs two screens but it sure would be nice if I had 3. I tried to get the IT guy to buy this but he denied me. I may spend my own money just so i can try it out. Nice review!

That was a good read Clay.
This gizmo is intriguing, and I can see why Sapphire will probably sell a lot of them.

To both comments above

I agree.. This is more for laptop users or for those who have prebuilt PCs that dont want to mess with PSU and pulling the system apart.. This unit is allot easier to manage for those who are not pc builders like us..
