nvidia enables dual output on sli

Post by sharky »

hi guys! just found this on nvidia s homepage dont knwo if it is a news, but for me it is..

Download the NVIDIA® GeForce® Release 180 driver to enable NVIDIA® SLI® Multi-monitor support, giving you the ability to use two monitors with your GeForce® graphics cards in SLI mode. Now you can easily switch between multi-monitor desktop mode and full screen 3D gaming mode without any additional system settings. Multi-monitor aware games – such as World in Conflict, Supreme Commander Forged Alliance, and Flight Simulator X – surround you with amazing graphics to immerse you in the game. In addition, you can enjoy the flexibility of having 2, 4, or even up to 6 displays based on your GPU and motherboard configurations.

up to some time ago it was impossible to use an iz3d montor or dual projector or any other stereo solution that needs 2 outputs on a sli setup. appearently that has changed.. so it should be possible now.. :)

I wonder if this will allow you to connect 3 Zalman Trimon displays and have all in stereo3d. I really want to try that.

That just means that people with passive stereo and iz3d monitors will eventually be able to use the iz3d drivers with SLI. I still wish Nvidia would just allow the same old outputs in their new 3d drivers.
