Would this work ?
Hello,
Just like most Matrox-enthousiasts in here, I am (was ?) waiting for some new card to be announced (I intend to buy a new system somewhere around july-august, I have already postponed this date because I didn't know which videocard to buy
).
It ought to be possible to use both a G450 PCI, and some other AGP-card (for arguments sake, let's say GeForce) in one machine. Is it possible to have the GF do the rendering of the game you are playing, but have the data displayed on one of the G450 displays ? (so basically, use the primary card for rendering, and the secondary for displaying; a bit like ye'old 3D-expansion boards
)
I believe every card has a VESA feature connector ("The VAFC connector, defined in the VESA VAFC version 1.0 Hardware Specification, allows for high
bandwidth point-to-point connections between the video and graphics subsystems."), see http://www.vesa.org/dload/summary/sumvafc_sw.htm .
Would use of this connector make it possible ?
