First Time multiboxer

[Chivalrous]

Well, that Chivalrous fella gave two pieces of advice earlier in the thread and one of them was SLI is NOT good for boxing, not at all.

If you need more evidence--I purchased two EVGA nVidia GTX 560ti cards when I built my new system and ran them SLI--It didn't perform well, and when I disabled SLI and used the cards for seperate monitors I received a huge performance boost. If I could do it again I would have bought a 500 dollar card instead of 2 250 dollar cards. SLI isn't supported by WoW and generally only works in full screen mode which you will never be in most likely.

How about running then like you one card per monitor, any diff than running both monitors out of a single card?

I ran 1 card per monitor for a while. It worked well enough, except you can't run the second card with DX11, which means my main ran on DX11, but my slaves were forced to DX9. Also, the slaves were pretty unhappy swapping to the main screen/card when they were configured for the secondary card. My last system upgrade, I moved to a single card and it's IMO smoother.

I run with a card for each monitor but on my main monitor I have all screens stacked and the other is just DX_Nothing and videoFX. It works--but probably isn't much different than it would be on just a a single card. That's why I wish SLI had worked for me.

It would seem that some recent findings show that a user's mileage may vary while using SLI. I plan to make a post on this in the near future.
