Hi
this is my first thread and post on this forum so i must say high to everyone and toms hardware HI!!!!
ok lol
but i have a rather weird questions and actually very important for me to get an definitive answer before i go ahead and buy all the components for this new computer i am planning to build.
I have briefly read and searched the forums and didnt find any similar or related questions that was asked so please tell me if i am asking a questions that has already been ansered
I have been using dual monitor set up for about 5 years now and i am very used to this set up
I dont think i will ever be able to go back to single monitor again
however, i am thinking of getting a crossfire build of 2 HD4870 Ati cards
and as most of you kno crossfire cannot support dual monitor
now my question is
since i already have a 9600GT left from my current computer
can i just conveniently use this 9600GT by Nvidia to power my second monitor?
i know my freind has done something similar to this before but he did it using two different cards with different GPU but both from Nivia Geforce powering two different monitors in dual view mode
Has anyone done this using crossfire and then a 9600GT?
does anyone know if this will work?
or will the catalyst driver mess up the nividia driver or vice versa?
please let me know
or please recommend suggestions of what i should do to get dual monitor view with crossfire HD4870
thanks a tons
