PhysX mult-screen setup question..

[lowrider007]

hi just a quick question, will the following work on standard dual x16 pci-e 2.0 motherboard,

1 x GTX260 powering 2 x displays (main GPU)

1 x 9800GT being used as a dedicated PhysX card also power 2 x displays (secondary GPU)

Basically I want to know if I can dedicate the 9800GT to do PhysX and use it to power 2 displays at the same time as I want to keep my 4 way display set-up and have dedicated PhysX.

you won't be gaming across all four displays, although you should be fine running four displays when gaming isn't happening

basically the 9800GT is PhysX's bitch when you're gaming, but otherwise it should be fine

one thing to note, if you don't already have the 9800GT, why not buy another GTX 260 and simplfy everything? (You'll gain more performance, features, effects, etc with SLI over a 9800GT just for PhysX (which supports all of what? 10 games))
