Default Gettin the Dell 30\" monitor, some basic questions.

well, my PC just [censored] died out of the blue so I went to best buy and just bought this piece of crap Computer and you can see all of it's features there. I needed it to support dual monitors and the guy at best buy told me to buy this video card and got my dual samsungs running. I would like to upgrade one of the monitors to the Dell 30". Would it be compatable? Also would I would be able to connect and a samsung 204BW to the video card at the same time? The computer came with a video output but it turned it off when I installed the new video card. so my question is


1. Will my current setup support the Dell 30"?
2. Will my current setup be able to support a second monitor (Samsung 204B)? Or do I need to buy a second video card to install? If so, could someone find one that my computer supports ?(specs are up there) (i already have the 8500 installed) (cheap is +, i do not care about pc gaming at all)


thank you for any help.

If it supports the appropriate interfaces, it'll support those monitors.

Yeah, if both monitors have dvi inputs, you'll need a card that supports dual monitors and has 2 dvi outputs. I'm horribly behind on the times, but it seems like some companies may have started adding dual output functionality in their drivers.
That, or I hallucinated the whole thing.
