Q about SLI and mutlitple Screens
lets say im some rich guy who bought a super incredible pc that has DUAL 8800 ULTRAS running in SLI and bought 3 screens. Can i run 2 of these http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824001096 and one of these http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1188562133732 with an s video input and make it like a continous screen and not a copys of each other, so u can move ur mouse on the next screen .................sorry if u can understand, so my idea is , making the 2 monitors for work for games and the HDTV for movies and television by using a tv tuner

While in SLI mode you cant run dual monitors, well you can but it will be the same thing on both monitors

What others have said is true, you can't run an extended monitor setup with SLI.
