? about SLI / Widescreen Gaming

[The Cobra]

Ok folks, I recently purchased a new machine. I kept my Apple 23" HD Display. I want to go ahead and purchase another GF7800GTX card to plug in.

I am curious if SLI/Widescreen gaming bug is still going on? They have been working on this for a year now.

ANy luck with anyone with Nvidia recent driver release?

Thanks

bump cuz i wanna know/never heard of this bug and thought the reason people went to sli was to play at mega high resolutions with i candy and still run smooth, most of the time being widescreen. hehe

You're in luck!

This combination actually works in SLI w/ the 7800GTX.

Tons of problems with the 6800 Ultras and before but they fixed the bug in the latest/greatest. That's the way it goes, I guess... nVIDIA didn't want to fix it for the old cards.

This is good to know.

From eVGA,

The 7800 GTX has one DVI output with Dual Link (DL) TMDS capable of 2560 x 1600 Digital Resolution (Apple 30" Cinema Display).

The 2nd DVI port has been capable of 1920 x 1200 Digital Resolution (Dell 24" Display and Apple 23" Cinema Display)

So you could have 1 x 30" plus 1 x 23" Cinema Displays running at the same time.
