I just bought a Dell Precision 650 Dual Xeon system with a 256MB NVIDIA FX3000 - AGP 8x video card(dual AVI output). I would like to add a GeCube Radeon X1600PRO 256MB PCI-E x16 Dual-DVI Video Card This should give me a four monitor output if they will place 'nice' with each other. Any comments before I move forward would be great.
I donât believe in mixing video card brands if I donât need too. I never had trouble running 2 fxâs cards at the same time if that helps.
Thanks for your input. I can get a good deal on the one I am looking at. Thats why I would like to add it.
Your motherboard has both AGP and PCI-E slots? That's not very common. I have had success running nVidia (PCI) and ATI (AGP) together so different manufacturers could work. (But this was on a computer I built, not on a Dell like yours.)
Never heard of that, so it's unlikely. OP will need to get a PCI card which is compatible with his FX.
