    Evening all..

    I'm currently running duel screen off ati 4870x2 more than happy with this. although im getting tired of having to keep unplugging one screen and connect TV up when i want to watch a movie..

    If i install another ATI card either crossfire or not or an nvidia card in the 2nd pci-e slot to give me another monitor output?

    so ie keep my existing duel screen running but also have the lcd on aswell so 3 screen.. I dont want to have to buy a 3 head card you see.. just want to add to what i have..

    :)

    cheers

    from CrossFire™ - FAQ

    Apparently each extra card will support two displays

    Ok cool.. minimum card for 1080p?

    ACtually that makes no difference,.. i can just run the lcd tv from port 2 on 4870x2 and run the 2nd monitor on just a cheap ati card right? its only for dreamweaver/outlook/word ect ect.
