I'm looking to build a system with 1 vid card and SLI capable. I plan
to run 2 monitors off of this one card. However, should I add a
second vid card and run the system in SLI can I still do 2 monitors?
Or must I d/c one and game then connect the 2nd monitor when I am
done?

The docs for my SLI setup state that if in SLI mode I can only use one
monitor. If not it SLI mode then all monitor ports on all cards (in my
case, four) can be used.
