| Re: So, how is this supposed to work? Two more questions: What about compatibility? Like ati+nvidia... Will it reduce performance by much?

| Re: So, how is this supposed to work? Alright I'm set to go, ill be buying a weak pci card now and hold off until Nvidia/ATi release their new cards. Then I will be able to use all my screens  Hopefully I can wait that long  Thanks guys.

 | Re: So, how is this supposed to work? I imagine that even using a seperate card for seperate screens will have no decrease in performance say watching a movie on one and playing a game on the other.

 | Re: So, how is this supposed to work? ^probably but i don't know how you could possibly watch movie and play a game and get the just of what your doing/seeing at the same time. But i know you were speaking hypothetically. |
