Ok, I've searched read the faq etc, can't find what I'm thinking of doing anywhere.
I like to run 2 screens, right now I'm using an EVGA 7900 GT CO OC, 256 Mb, and its driving 2 1680X1050 LCD panels. What I'd like to do is upgrade to an 8800 GTS, but I don't want to drop the $360 on the 640 Mb card,
What I'd like to do is run a 2nd video card in my DFI Infinity SLI motherboard to drive the 2nd monitor. Would this be a worthwhile attempt? People seem to think the 320 Mb card is too stressed out at resolutions over what a single screen would be, but I'm not sure if cutting my lanes in half by using both PCIe slots would kill the performance of the cards.
