Quick nooby question.

Hi there

In a system with 2 GPUs (both AMD but both different).

If the output cable is plugged into the weaker of the cards, can you still tell your PC to use the more powerful of the cards (for gaming and such) and having it output through the weaker card, or you basically need to plug monitors into the more powerful card?

- Cheers
 
Hmm.... I suspected that might be the answer.
Well, maybe I'll try and do some internal jiggling inside my cramped case :D
 
Well, I would also assume the 'better' card should go in the PCEIx16 3.0 slot? And not the lower 2.0 slots?
That would mean some internal re-wangling of my cramped case due to different card lengths.

At the end of the day, maybe I would just keep the better card in a 2.0 slot and plug the monitors into that. No biggie :)
