Those of you with NVIDIA’s SLI configuration and dual monitors know that both monitors must run from a single card in order to operate. If dual monitors are enabled, two cards operating as one takes control of the single screen, which leaves the other monitor ineffective.

According to NVIDIA, the solution requires a new driver but even with that the dual display will only be enabled in a 2D view. In February of 2005, the GPU maker said the driver needed to support 2D dual display view will take sometime, which points out the fact that SLI isn’t capable of supporting dual monitors hardware wise.

A source close to NVIDIA recently confirmed that the dual display issue will be corrected with NVIDIA’s upcoming line of GPUs that are expected to debut at Computex in early June. As much as this turns out to be an optimistic confirmation, those of you with current SLI setups may have nothing to look forward to.
