two x16 slots (was dual video cards setup doc)

Post by msalcedo »

Okay, I read the doc, now I really confused.
The doc Trevor talked about was for a x16 card and pci card..
Why?
the x1000 has two x16 slots?



Trevor stated that a doc was available on the x1000 aeon site.
I can't find it!

my log on shows several pdf's mostly linux related but no doc on setting up dual video cards..

Any help would be much thanked.
Michael

The doc was write at first for 3D support, because HD cards had no one these time. I.e. main Radeon HDxxxx card with Radeon driver in PCIe x16 for Workbench and other programs, and secondary PCI card (like Radeon 9xxx ) for Warp 3D Games.

But it works also with the same settings with two cards in PCIe slots.
