cheap desktop, two monitors and mostly for poker
 
I have an ancient PC and while I still have room on the hard-drive it tends to run slow while having multiple tables open and running PAH, PT ..etc..

Looking for a basic desktop that will run all these systems smoothly and have the capacity for a two monitor set-up. I do have two video cards in my old desktop but I would guess it would be easier to just buy a desktop with this capacity as it is probably standard now?

any links or suggestions would be appreciated.

I assume what I need is a good processor speed or capacity...not sure of the lingo..

You can't really go wrong with any new computer you buy today. Although there are some people here who are very opinionated on what you'll need [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] As a basic guideline at least get a dual core system. Other than that just make sure the card supports dual monitors (although the plugs have changed so a modern dual dvi card may not be able to drive your monitors if they use the blue vga plugs)
