nVIDIA drivers didn't offer me any reasonable control over my multi-monitor setup. nVIEW long gone? Quite annoying. 100 features it has but the 1 that matters.

How do you go by?

2) With multiple monitors, the card never idles around. Such an oversight by Nvidia!

ATI owners?

New is good? Atrocious. My ancient Geforce 6200 can do dual-display for 30W less (!)

This is normal behavior for our GPUs to operate at a higher temperature when dual monitors are connected and enabled. This is because the GPU is running at higher clock speeds to provide the operating system with better performance, something that isn't as important when running a single monitor. As far as temperature at idle is concerned, I have not tested this myself but given how the upcoming version of Adobe Premiere CS5 will use CUDA and how much it will accelerate the software, if you plan on purchase Adobe CS5, you will want to use an NVIDIA CUDA enabled GPU.

Shame on you, phat, lazy, incapable nVIDIA. "The way it's meant to be WHAT again?" LMAO. Radeon is on my buy list now.
