we all run dual set up's here in a variety of flavours. not one problem in many years across the whole of comp.
some are even running an old 4x3 panel with a 27" Do get the feeling though that you need a reasonable gfx card ________________________________ From: Deke Kincaid <[email protected]> To: Nuke user discussion <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, 30 July, 2011 21:37:50 Subject: Re: [Nuke-users] dual monitor lag I get a big slowdown with 2560x1440 on a single monitor setup and typically go down to 1920x1080 because just the OS drawing windows is a lot faster but that is probably because I'm running it off a laptop with only 512 meg vram. A 570 and 580 have at least 1-1.5 gig each so this probably isn't a problem but it is still something you should try. 2nd thought, what slots are your 580 and 570 in? Sometimes people mistakenly put their second video card in a 1x or 4x slot instead of a 8x or 16x(depending their motherboard). If your motherboard only has 1x16 slot and the rest are only 4x or 1x, then it is often faster to have 1 card driving both monitors instead of 2 cards since you run into bandwidth problems with 2nd video card in the slower slot. 3rd thought, Nuke 6.3 has a new gpu memory option in the preferences. It defaults to 256meg and you probably have 2-3gig between those two cards. -deke On Sat, Jul 30, 2011 at 03:49, Gabor L.
