Combining Series Families

Post by BiGg RiE »

If I have an 8800GTS & a 7800GT can i put them in my asus crosshair board for support of 2 additional monitors?

Can I pair:

8800gts & 7800GT
8800GTS & 7300GT
7800GT & 7300GT

I'm not looking to run SLI but I just want to know if I can do this to get 4 monitors up and running?

Thanx,

If sli is not intended then you can run any two graphics cards (as long as they aren't an ATI and a Nvidia).
