BOINC + GPU question

Up to this point, I have only ran a single GPU card in a system at a time. Typically Collatz because my cards are old and this is the only project that doesn't over stress them. I now have 4 nVidia GeForce 8400 cards and am thinking of picking up a motherboard that has enough slots to run all four with the next upgrade I do. No, I will not be buying new video cards in the build, so only looking to utilize what I got.

My question though is, will I need to buy terminators for each or hook up monitors to each for BOINC to use them, or will they just work right off the bat?
 
I never ran dummy plugs when I was doing BOINC GPU projects, but I only did GPUGRID. Give it a shot.
 
Cool thanks. GPU Grid won't run the 8400's....so I'm stuck with Collatz. SETI, Einstein, and Milkyway don't like them much either. Too demanding and they end up over heating and crashing.
 
No, you don't need dummy plugs if you install the latest NVIDIA drivers.
