If I put 2 EN6800 SLI Ready video card 16x pci exp, can I use each dvi
output individually and drive 4 monitors ?

My understanding of SLI is that each card does a portion of the screen such
that each is doing half the work. So on this basis you cannot do what you

Tks Osca & Iain !


But if I dont put the "jumper pc or the bootstrap" between the 2 cards
maybe I'll be able to run 4 screen .
