Hi, i just picked up a second Sony via 19" Lcd monitor, and now i want to set up a quad monitor configuration with the 2 sony's, 1 Lg 37" lcd, and a 17" samsung lcd.
Ok, i have and ATI x1900xt video card, but for some weird reason, it seems the price of the card has actually gone up since i bought it a year ago. I don't really need to run crossfire, because i simply don't need that performance..especially at that price. So basically what i am asking is can i install another cheep(er) pci, or pci-e video card and run them simultaneously, but w/o the drivers being conflictive. Obviously you cant run two different cards in sli, but that is not what i am trying to do. Just simply use the second video card to create an extended desktop with my 4 monitors. Also if this somehow does work, will ATI catalyst even recognize me other 2 monitors hooked up to the other video card, or will i need some kind of 3rd party software to do this. Advice?
