I have two of these in my machine

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130550

so I have 4 DVI outputs total. 2 are in use by 2x24" dell monitors. I am thinking of getting like a 40" tv that I can mount above my monitors on the wall. Does that sound viable? I was talking to a friend and he said when you bridge 2 graphics cards the outputs on one of the cards are disabled. I find that hard to believe, but I guess that is why I'm asking here.
 
IIRC, for myself the 2nd graphics card outs will not work in crossfire since I have 4870s. However my card has 2 DVI and S-Video so I connected all 3 to one card even though S-Video is not desirable.

You have HDMI on that, you should be fine if you use the HDMI port.
 
oh, right! I forgot I had an hdmi port as well..that is awesome..well I may be back in a couple days if I cant figure it out
 
hey so I bought the tv today. I bought a 42" vizio at costco for 529. I'm just going to be watching hulu on it.

So I got all 3 monitors working on it as you can see below. Apparently my GPU only supports 2 outputs at 1 time. So right now I have 2 monitors plugged into oneGPU and the hdmi plug in the other GPU. I had to mess around in the nvidia control panel a bit, but finally figured it out.

My question is why does my mouse seem like its on a rubber band when I am mousing around on the tv? I'm assuming the TV doesn't refresh as fast as my monitors. Does that sound right? Video looks and plays fine on it though which is good.

ok messing around with the tv settings, there was an option called "fast response." Turning it to on seems to have made the issue go away almost all the way. Its still noticeable, but not nearly as much.
