OCModShop take a further look at the DisplayLink USB Graphics Adapter. These little devices are small little boxes that plug into a USB port, and then connect to any DVI or VGA monitor. The software uses your existing video card's capabilities, so even full-motion video and 3D accelleration is still possible on your other monitors.

If you actually do have a need for this adapter, then you're probably a laptop or netbook user and are probably doing office tasks. This adapter is great for these applications, as well as "casual" multimon use, like when you need to do a presentation or hook up to a projector with little fuss.

The DisplayLink USB Graphics adapters are a great way to expand your multimonitor needs. If you have any spare video ports on your computer or video card, use these as your first monitor expansion option. If you expect this adapter to be as fast as your internal video card, then you will be rather disappointed. You will get the most value from the DisplayLink adapters on a computer with very limited expansion options. If you find yourself in this niche, then the DisplayLink Graphics adapter is a no-brainer.
