should i use a vga splitter

[Sub2pewdiepie]

i am thinking of buying a vga splitter to be able to use two monitors at once should i do this if so what do you recommend i get

VGA can't run multiple independent monitors on a single port. A splitter will only duplicate the same image to both displays.

there're some device that can combine multiple monitors into a giant virtual monitor. but that's beyong vga's capability.

 

other than a rare connector called dms, generally one connector only drive one display. if you want to use two monitors, you can simply plug them into your graphics card (or modern motherboard).

 

anyway, try to get a monitor have digital input like dvi / hdmi / dp other than vga, it can't handle resolution higher than 1080p@60hz very well.
