Meaning you have both monitors on the Radeon? If so, you're likely to see an *increase* in performance. When I had one monitor on my 7600's internal video, and one on the radeon, Open GL screen savers, like Flurry, were painfully slow and stuttering; when I hooked both up to the Radeoon, it was as smooth as it is on a new Mac.
