    Default Running 2 graphic cards?

    Hey all I just gave my PC a face lift and have a second graphic card and wanted to know if there was a way to run one client on the old card and my other 4 off the new one. I have 2 monitors.

    OS?

    Innerspace can do this on any OS, but with Windows 7 I didn't have any need to worry about it since they managed to make it work right!

    Realy ? How can i setup this on innerspace? I have 2 different cards and it hack my FPS down to 15 from 45-50. Think have to wait for Windows 7.

    You need to setup a 2nd profile for WoW to use the 2nd GPU and disable PIP swap.

    No dont do this your performance will suffer horribly. The two cards will fight for the same resources in your system and you will get incredibly low FPS. Just use one card unless they are SLI or Crossfire.

    Zanthor and I beg to differ.

    And my corroboration: Windows 7 3D Application Performance and Multiple Graphics Cards.

    As mentioned above, Windows 7 appears to have resolved multi GPU issues and works fantastically on my machine with triple monitors and PIP @ 1920x1080 x 5 clients. The other post I hadn't seen til today and goes a LOT farther to demonstrate the issue is fixed than mine does!
