Performance Test have supported Dual-Displays Benchmark?

[David (PassMark)]

The time it takes to render a 2D scene is proportional to the number of pixels being rendered. So 2 screens should be no different from 1 large screen. It is the number of pixels that is more important than the number of screens.

Even then typically screen updates only occur on 1 screen at a time. For example you wouldn't normally have a browser window spread across multiple displays.

Applications are only in 2D.

Thanks for you reply.

Slightly more video RAM is required, but the figure is way below what typical video cards now have access to. You can calculate the requirements with a calculator (about 10MB per screen).

Most 3D games don't support multi-monitors.

So that only leaves 2D?

I want to know that if different graphic cards in high resolution(Extended-Mode) have performance difference.
Maybe graphic card need more resources, like as memory, CPU, ...etc. in Extended-Mode.


Thank you!

What exactly are you trying to measure?
For most applications dual display will have zero impact on the performance.

I need to know Dual-Display performance benchmark in different devices.
Include Clone-Mode and Extended-Mode, if the PT can execute on two monitors in same time?
How do I compare these benchmark result?

Thank you!
