Hello everyone,
I have two PCI-E GeForce 6800 GT video cards, and one PCI GeForce 6200 in my system. I have an Intel Quad Core Q6600 Overclocked to 3GHz with 2Gig G.SKILL DDR2 800 RAM.
I am not running SLI, but running 5 monitors. Each PCI-E card is a dual DVI card, and the PCI is a single DVI. I wanted to know if I am limiting my performance by having that PCI card in my system. I don't know how windows will handle graphics. Is windows smart enough to use my PCI-E card to the max when I have a graphics intensive app which is being displayed on a monitor handled by the PCI-E card? Will windows limit all processing to the max speed of the slowest card aka the PCI card?
I am running XP Pro.
Thanks,
Matt
