Hi there,

I have a 8800Gt and a 8800GTS (how ever ill be getting a 275 soon). I was wondering on some suggested configurations with the one extra card in the end (which will be the gt when i get the 275).

Basically this is what I am wondering.

1. Im pretty sure and correct me if im wrong. As long as the "extra" vid card is a 8800 I can use it for physx. If so, can I also use the monitors on it so the more powerful vid card is just processing games?

2. Would it be better just to keep the monitors on the main graphics card, and use the extra for physx?

Or ... is the other suggestions?

Thanks!

I suggest the second variant. Monitors on main card and keep the 8800 GTS for physiX.

Yeah, i figured thats probably the best set up. Im waiting on the 275 to show up now. So for fun I threw the other vid card in and use it for physx, but also dropped a third monitor in lol.

Cheers for the input. =)
