Hi,
I am considering an iMac after being a Windows user for 20+ years. I have this 2 year old Samsung 27" HDMI 1920 x 1080 monitor. I'm planning to use it (since I have it) as a 2nd monitor.
I have 2 questions:
1) Can I use both these monitors even though the resolutions are different? Native (built-in) 27" iMac is 2560x1440 and my other one is 1920 x 1080. I won't use it in mirrored mode. It would be for additional real estate.
2) Assuming it can handle the 2 monitors as above, do I need to consider the non-standard graphics option which is: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4GB GDDR5
The base graphics is: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5
I won't be doing gaming. Perhaps video editing and primarily Word processing, office-type apps, etc.
Thanks in advance,
Steve
