See double* at the Southwest Show with Titanium

And you won’t even need to go to the bar first! The Titanium motherboard from Elesar Ltd features a pair of DVI-I video connectors, each of which is capable of driving a 1920 x 1080 display, with full 24-bit colour – and visitors to the the Southwest Show on Saturday will be able to see it doing just that, with both video outputs being utilised to display a single desktop spanning two screens.

Titanium comes to London user group meeting

Group’s first meeting of 2016 sets a high bar for the rest of the year!
