@swiley if it's just for the extra screens, you can buy any old card e.g. 750 Ti

i have two screens, i'd probably prefer to get a larger one than additional screens

@fluffy Yeah but I have two large ones, plus a projector pointed into the living room, plus a large one at the foot of my bed (via a ~20ft extension cable) plus an extra one that's not super large but is in a really convenient spot for relaxing.

It's more about having screens in different parts of the house with a bluetooth keyboard/mouse so I don't have to deal with a laptop.

@swiley yeah the usb might be the solution then, if you don't have PCIe slots

if you're happy with 1080p then you can get full speed from usb3. i'd like to see your bed setup since i did a lot of computer in bed when sick recently

@fluffy It's all the way at the foot and it's low enough to the ground that I really have to sit up when I'm using it actively. It's more for watching TV in bed since my GF likes that. Really I should swap it for the projector but there's a door and a bookshelf behind it so I'd need to get a screen to point it at.
