Just an observation:
Shouldn't you ask this BEFORE you buy a 9700 & two 21" monitors?

I don't know of any 3D games that support dual monitors. Typically you play on one while something else is running on the other.

Thats not true.

In some flight sims, dual monitors make for a great setup.

There may be games out there that do it, I think all Q3 engine games do, but Hydravision does not support 3D acceleration on the second monitor so you are probably up the proverbial creek with the 9700. I haven't looked into whether or not any of the alternatives to Hydravision would support 3D on the second display as I really have no desire to do that.
