Please comment on my new build spec

I don't believe you can use the integrated GPU at the same time as a separate graphics card.

You can only switch between one or the other, if that's what you're after, or do you want to use all 4 displays at once?

Can you be more specific regarding the exact model number of the LG monitors and the make and model of the TV/monitors?

TV/monitors Hannspree ST321MNB 32" LCD TV Full HD 1080p 4 x HDMI,vga Black
6,5ms
LG LG W2261VP Full HD TFT LCD 22" HDMI.dvi,vga

I was under the impession you could utilise the grapics on the Asus P8Z68-V PRO at the same time as the discrete cards if not looks like I will have to forgo crossfire and use dvi and both hdmi on each card and utilise the catalyst suite to span the monitors ??

I get the impression you can't reading the motherboard manual.

Perhaps someone else knows for certain.

You should be able to connect your 4 displays to the Crossfired 6950's.

As I said you can only use the connectors from 1 card.

You can use the 2 DVI connections to connect to DVI on the LG displays.

You can use the 2 mini DisplayPort connectors with adapters to connect to the Hannspree displays. I think you can use the cheaper MiniDisplayport to VGA adapters rather than the more expensive "active" adapters.

Again perhaps someone with more experience in this area can confirm this.
