Yes you will get the issue. No matter how good the cards are, if the output ports are on separate hardware and share no sync source, there will always be a chance of getting out of sync. As shocking as it seems, a PC has no clock source that gets used by all audio/video devices for media synchronization (SGIs have this for example, but this is just an expensive digression). As far as I know, there are two options (others correct me if I'm wrong): 1. One card with multiple outputs (less expensive) 2. Multiple cards which share a synchronization signal like word-clock or sync-from-digital-in, assuming there is a digital source to feed the cards (more of a studio/professionnal setup). I'm in a rush now so I have no time to go fishing for good hardware suggestions, but I'm sure you get the point: do your shopping right. I'll disappear until beginning of October, so good luck!
