I've been out of the hardware scene for quite awhile.

Looking into a 890GX based Motherboard with onboard Radeon 4200.
I'll be using a Radeon 5xxx for my main card.

My question is can I use both the onboard and PCI-E 5xxx at the same time since I have 4 monitors?

In the past this wasn't possible but a few things I have read suggest it now is with current hardware.

Thanks mate. Can anyone confirm before I place the order?

I know all about the 5xxx series and getting 3 outputs simultaneous (e.g having to use displayport with active adapter since you can't use HDMI/DVI at the same time).

So i've got 3 there, just need confirmation that I can use either the HDMI or DVI of the onboard while using the add-on card also.
