Do the drivers allow for the 4th monitor to be connected to the last port on the SLI GTX 480s and have it display as a separate monitor from the 3 in Surround? Or do you have a third video card to do the last monitor? Because I would like to put my Samsung 2233RZ that is just laying around to use.

You need to use a 3 card for the 4th monitor i use a 220GT and use it as PhysX card to.

Are you running that current setup with your Corsair HX1000 in your sig? Because if you are I would be much more comfortable with putting my 9600 GT back into my system for the 4th monitor and for PhysX.

Nice setup meng, but that GT220 can not possibly help your system in the least in fact just the opposite, are you using it to enable the 4th monitor?

HYBRID, OP just said above he's using a gt 220 for the 4th monitor. look at the pic of his nv control panel. Anyhow, somebody figured out how to get around the 3 monitor limit, cool. Now if nvidia would allow a 5 monitor config in a 4 way sli gtx 4xx situtation, that would be interesting. I know it's a odd number, but two on the 1st card and 3 on the other 3 cards makes 5.
