I have never said that, but if it can use two monitors, then I can just plug
my monitor into either card. "Pen" wrote in message ... Where in your URL does it say anything about using the monitors separately? I can't see it. "pete" wrote in message ... http://www.pcworld.idg.com.au/index....pid;1116437436 This seems to differ from your answer, or did I read it wrong?

they won't be connected to each other) and they don't even have to be from the same graphics chipset manufacturer! NVIDIA-based cards can be used in conjunction with ATI-based cards, but each card's own multi-monitor management software will be disabled; instead, Windows XP's own multi-monitor configuration options need to be used. This differs from your statement, I am not saying you are wrong, but you are saying that they are wrong. "Cuzman" wrote in message ... pete wrote: " This seems to differ from your answer, or did I read it wrong? " You read it wrong. Any configuration of two video cards requires that they have identical GPUs. You cannot successfully use a Quadro FX3400 and a 7800GTX in the two PCI-E slots. |

i don't think it works with PCI E cards. I say this because PCI-E SLI boards
seperate their bandwidth between the two ports. Normally a PCI E port has 16 bus lanes, in SLI 16/2=8 each. a fx 3400, not being a SLI card i don't think will work. However if you use a PCI card i'm pretty sure you can get it to work then.
