Hey everyone! I have a GTX 260 in my PC in the first slot, and a 8800gt laying around. I was wondering, If i put it in my PC (windows 7) I could use at as a Physix Card. But the real question:

 

Can I boot into Windows vista/7 with both cards, but in Leopard with omly the 8800gt? Without disabling the GTX in windows?

@x986123 It might work, but for time you will use OSX, you must boot system from other card (DFI bioses have an option like that - you can select from wich slot computer should boot), and ofkoz reconnect monitor cable to other card or if you have good D-Sub cable you can connect DVI to card you use most, and to other card you can connect monitor using D-Sub and then you just have to change input in OSD (and of course cards in bios).

 

In my case I'm using D-Sub with GTX 260 in Windows environment while playing games, and DVI with 7900GS through DVI with OSX.

Now, can you explain please what a D-Sub cable is, and were I might find that option in my bios?
