Question is simple, is it bad two run the 4800 Series with the 6800? Will it cause some driver issues?Technically it shouldn't cause any driver issues as long as the version you install supports both cards.  I believe the 4800 series support was dropped at the beginning of the year, so if you use the 13.1 or earlier drivers you should be fine.  You MAY run into some problems depending what exactly you're doing with the cards.  What's the reason to run both together?One card per monitor Quote from: Yasjalnadie on August 23, 2013, 08:24:35 AM

One card per monitor
Why?   Most cards will support two monitors.  So, why have the two cards?That radeon 6800 can certainly run at least two monitors so just connect them both to that.Well, at one time I both monitors on one card and would average around 150 FPS in some games. After I put in the other graphics card and placed one monitor per card I'm able to REACH around 300 FPS. It really changed my performance for games. *NOTE* I also watch videos and sometimes dual box multiple games as well.
