Yes, it should work. (additionally, you may be able to "enable SLI mode"
anyway. They won't actually work in SLI, but each PCIe port will be at 8x)
But--you don't need two video cards to run dual monitors. I run a 2405FPW
and a 2005FPW with a dual-DVI-out single PCIe 6600GT.

Subject: [H] Is this possible?
I've been wanting to go dual display. Not for games, but for windows type
apps. I have an ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe mobo. I have a Sapphire PCI Express
video card. I just got a second PCI Express video card for free. Both are
*not* SLI video cards.
Can I somehow run both of these on the same board just for the dual
monitor
support? I've read through the motherboard booklet, and it sounds as if
the
second PCI Express card will only run in PCI Express 1x mode, unless
you're
running in SLI mode. Is that okay? Will this work? I don't care about
the
3D performance, I just want to have dual display within windows.
Thanks!
Chris
