Hi,
Well, you can have 2 video cards installed. But you can have only one running. There is a setting in the BIOS to select where your video card is (AGP or PCI). Currently yours is set to AGP. If you buy a PCI video card, you will have to switch it to PCI (then your AGP won't work). So technically, you can't have 2 video cards. Sorry.I mean:
(Lol, clicked on wrong smiley)

Incorrect,
You can run multiple video cards and use multiple monitors.

Hi,
Whoops, guess I was wrong! But I have a question, which would you select for your BIOS? AGP or PCI? Also, if you had two 9800XTs running at the same time, would you get double the power for gaming?358
