Total PPD will go down because I now distributed both VM from core0-core2 and both GPU's have core3 for themselfes. Let's see what that brings me.

Edit: Oh and fan on 80% (3600RPM) brings me 72°C. It's not quiet and it's a squealer. Louder that both 9600GSO by far.

Edit 2: The key to get it working? I did a fresh and clean setup on both GPU2 clients. Then I changed the second DVI to dummy plug (the same as the HDMI now, second DVI had a cable to a real monitor before but I bet that wasn't the problem). I didn't change anything on the driver side, because 181.20 was giving me headaches before. Oh and I shut the enhance to 3rd monitor on and of and on, and there it was. The second GPU in RT. Wowsa. I have to admit that my Vista install is "vintage", so you might have no problems at all. But to me it seems that the drivers are not really ready for this. Fiddling around like this and needing to install leaked beta drivers to get it working? Come on nVidia!
Very nice p2501! Glad you got it running! Which "leaked" drivers did you use???

I'll be very happy if I can get 3 of my 9800GX2s running in my I7. Replacement board arrives tomorrow. And I'll put the other 3 in a new AMD 9600 build with a K9A2 Platinum mobo. That should yield 50-60K ppd from 2 rigs and lower my power bill. Of course that leaves 6 empty PCI-E slots and like an addict with an incurable addiction, I'll probably try to fill them.
