Dual video cards (quad monitors)

[leanspy]

Hi all,

Has anyone gotten multiple video cards working in their box? I currently run 4 monitors on my Mac Pro via two video cards. I'm putting together a parts list to build a SB rig and it'd be great if I could get it to support my displays.

If I throw in two ATI 5770's, in theory will OSX see them or is this not currently supported? Thanks!

Best bet is to install one Sapphire 5670, 5770, or 6770 flex gfx cards (6850 and 6870 flex are available too but much more expensive). They support 3 monitors out of the box. 4 if you have an active display port adapter (or just another monitor that supports display port).

Awesome, thanks for the info! I'll give it a shot.

This ended up not working for me at all beyond one monitor.

Here's what finally allowed me to achieve 3 monitors 100% working OOB:
