That's a great question. Big%20Smile    I don't know 100% but I think you can run both in the same system but not in SLI or CF.   Hooked to two different monitors and working independently of each other.  Others have done it but that was awhile ago.

bprat is correct, you can do this.

While its not common (and you may run into some weird driver issues) you can have two separate cards operating independently of each other (obviously no SLI, CF, etc.). I did this back in the day with a Voodoo and a Radeon.
