Quick question, will a 8800GTX and a 7900GTX (both evga) work together? I don't want SLI, but just to use more than two monitors on? Help - N00b. |

Shouldn't be a problem, especially since they use the same driver .exe, right? |

Yepp, shouldn't be a problem. Hopefully the new driuvers still support the 7xxx series.. |

If using XP or Windows 7, you can use them even if they each require a different driver. With Vista, they need to use the same driver. So, yeah, they'll work in the same system. ;) Latest Windows 7 drivers support my old 7900GTO. I know this 'cause I just installed Win 7 on a 7900GTO system. :) |

Indeed. SLI is not required in a multi-card setup - it's just an option if the cards are identical. ;) |
