Help needed in chosing 2nd GPU
I managed to get my TH2GO system operating in stereo anaglyph by using the beta 91.47 and the matching forceware driver. Unfortunately, the 91.47 Forceware Nview menu does not recognise my 4th monitor plugged into the 2nd slot on my GPU (FSX 2D instrument panel monitor). I am assuming the only way around this is to purchase a second card, and was wondering which cheap card would be best to use on my current mobo. Thanks.


2 x PCIE x16 (the second slot is for an additional video accelerator in SLI mode; like the main slot, it operates in x16 mode)
PCIE x4
2 x PCIE x1
2 x PCI (2.2)

That wouldn't work with the stereo 3d driver as it is not SLi compadable. I would check your connections to make sure everyting is running ok. But seriously, why would you really need 4 monitors ;)

/no.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':no:' /> I think you have misunderstood. I do not want SLI. I require a 2nd card to fit into one of the other PCI slots, for instance the PCIx4 slot would be perfect for rendering a 2D instrument panel. I need the 4th monitor or else I cannot fly. I have a bumpit and the 3 monitors powered by the TH2GO are the outside views.

Like I have stated, the 91.47 forceware driver does not recognise the other monitor which is plugged into the 2nd dvi port of my GPU.
