   While most modern graphics cards have support for dual monitors and can expand a desktop across three screens, 3D games were generally limited to a single monitor. The GXM uses the standard Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) structure to communicate its capabilities to the graphics card just as a monitor does. However, the GXM's ...

5. Enhanced Graphics Adapter - Wikipedia

   EGA-specific monitors used a dual-sync design which could switch from the 15.7 kHz of 200-line modes to 21.8 kHz for 350-line modes. [26] A non-IBM EGA card. Many EGA cards have DIP switches on the back of the card to select the monitor type. If CGA is selected, the card will operate in 200-line mode and use 8×8 characters in text mode. If EGA ...

6. Hercules Graphics Card - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hercules_Graphics_Card

   The Hercules Graphics Card (HGC) is a computer graphics controller formerly made by Hercules Computer Technology, Inc. that combines IBM's text-only MDA display standard with a bitmapped graphics mode, also offering a parallel printer port. [1] [2] This allows the HGC to offer both high-quality text and graphics from a single card.

7. Extended Graphics Array - Wikipedia

   The eXtended Graphics Array (usually called XGA) is a graphics card manufactured by IBM and introduced for the IBM PS/2 line of personal computers in 1990 as a successor to the 8514/A. It supports, among other modes, a display resolution of 1024 × 768 pixels with 256 colors at 43.5 Hz ( interlaced ), or 640 × 480 at 60 Hz ( non-interlaced ...

8. Color Graphics Adapter - Wikipedia

   The CGA was released alongside the IBM MDA, and in fact could be installed alongside the MDA in the same computer. A command included with PC DOS permitted switching the display output between the CGA and MDA cards. [38] Some programs like the early MS-DOS versions of AutoCAD supported using both displays concurrently.
