im adding 3th amd 4th screen to my computer, cause 2 isnt enough anymore and its more ÜBER that way :D am i right that when adding screens, i dont have to use nvidias SLI technology,just stick in second graphics card and start running few more screens?
get yourself a nice AMD ATI card then you can run more then enough screens from a single card....
something like this:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814121417 (this is what I would buy if I had the money at the moment... :P )

this card features 2 DVI ports, 1 HDMI port and 2 miniDP ports. it should satisfy your needs completely...

there are plenty of newer cards that supports 4+ screens... my card is getting pretty dated but I am running a AMD ATI HD5830 and it supports 4 screens (2 X DVI 1 X HDMI 1 X display port)

all I am saying is to get a new card and you will be able to run all your screens from a single card. where as if you added a second graphics card, you may have to upgrade your power supply too, if you don't own a good one already....

Sugary high GI breakfasts aren't doing your child any good, you should be feeding him things high in protein and stuff like that, like eggs and such, if you want him to grow big and strong.

:D
dude, not being mean, the waffles were sugar free and meant for babies, and the cereal, which is high in protein and vitamins, that is also made for babys,

he can eat just about anything i eat

You'll be a believer the moment you close your eyes as your finger depresses the large, red, ignition button and the burst disk bulges outwards momentarily before it failures spectacularly as a burning hot, supersonic, high pressure flame front rips through the air and launches the projectile at 3x the speed you've ever accomplished before with less than half the effort. :roll:

Even JSR converted! We're still waiting on POLAND-I-have-romantic-affairs-with-3way valves-SPUD though.

Someone needs to set up a spud meet so Gun Freak can witness the power of THE HYBRID.

Had I said something in the past about a lady in the company of three gentlemen being a sort of eccentric radial three cylinder engine?

I am not sure if you can do that, I have never seen it done...
I think it might be possible if your motherboard is equipped with a lucid Hydra chip, cause this chip allows you to run multiple GPU's all with different chipsets... but without this chip, I doubt you can do this...

The Asus ATI HD6950 has 2 DVI and 4 display slots, so this means i can run 6 screens with it? and is it better than my old gtx-475?

yes you would be able to run 6 screens of that, and I belive that card is quite a bit better than the 475, the 6950 is a duel GPU card so that means it is almost like a duel core CPU, quite a bit better than single core...
