    LCD for graphic designers

    I have a SolidWorks rig with 2 regular old Dell 3007WFP 30" screens. I got them used ($900 & $850) and never looked back! I definitely recommend this monitor- there are higher specs out there, but to be perfectly honest, I don't need them or even perceive a need for more given how cheap these are.

    Do I need to physically remove the SLI bridge in order to get each GTX card to run one monitor? I have not been able to get the second card to run anything yet. The nvidia control panel does report that SLI is enabled and happy (when selected), though, leading me to think that the 2nd card is...

    2nd monitor not recognised

    I have got the two monitors to work independently of each other now, but not together. Are you saying that If I disable SLI, then I can plug the 2nd monitor into the 2nd card and then they will work?
