NVIDIA SLI
I recently purchased a second EVGA GeForce 9800 GTX SSC to run it in a SLI configuration with the first EVGA GeForce 9800 GTX SSC I already had. It was when I installed the new video card and enabled SLI that my heart sank. Only 1 display can be used when SLI is enabled, I have 3 displays. Moving from 3 displays down to 1 was something I came to terms with. After all, I wanted SLI.
I decided to perform some further investigating. What I found: NVIDIA currently has drivers in beta that support multiple displays when is SLI is enabled. Hurray! I now have a dual display configuration once again. I can live with 2 displays, but 3 displays are REALLY nice. The second display gives me a place to throw things which I like to keep an eye on. Applications such as the Trillian Astra chat client, the Windows Vista sidebar, and twhirl all find a home on the second display.
Edit: Here is a great article regarding the new 180.xx beta drivers from NVIDIA over at PC Perspective.
