Hi there, I have an unusual problem which I'm looking to solve.
I currently have a FirePro V8700 workstation card (for my Maya work)
and I also have an Nvidia GTX 285
I play games often, and the Firepro (equiv to ati 4870) is just a bit too slow.
Does anyone know if I can have both the cards installed, AND both connected to the same monitor.
So basically, if I can somehow choose which card is currently active??
ati firepro - when I'm working
nvidia gtx - when I'm gaming
The best situation would be if the secondary card powered down also, to save on power, but I'm not too worried about that..
Anyone seen this done before?
