I've got an ASUS A8N-SLI Premium that I'm building up and was wondering
if a Quadro FX 540 (a workstation card) will coexist with a Geforce
6800 GT? I am NOT talking about using SLI, just having two PCi-Express
video cards so I can drive three monitors.

"Question

Can A8N-SLI Deluxe support four monitors output?

Answer

Yes, A8N-SLI series can support four monitors on dual VGA cards
mode (normal mode) but canšt on SLI mode. Under SLI mode, you*
will only see one VGA card* and*only single*monitor output. "

HTH,
Paul

Thanks, I also figured this out since posting my question. But now the
question is whether a Quadro card can coexist with a Geforce. Nvidia
has different drivers for the quadro so that's where the hitch may lay.


I've posted to CAD and Nvidia related forums...hope to have an answer
soon.
