Hi all,
So, I just put a PCI Nvidia 6200 in my P7P55D-E LX as a secondary video card to drive a third monitor and my computer is super slow now: boot takes much longer and there's a lot of stuttering when moving windows around. The primary card is a GTX 285 in the solitary PCI-E slot (Windows 7 64bit). I uninstalled the Nvidia drivers before installing the 6200, then reinstalled the latest WHQL drivers after installing the card.
What I'm trying to figure out is whether this is due to the secondary card being PCI and slowing the whole system down which I will have to live with or is this a driver issue? I've read of issues with multiple non-SLI/crossfire configurations when both cards have same type chipset (ATI or NVIDIA). Would it be worth taking the 6200 back and getting an ATI PCI card?
