Can the Apple 30" Cinema Display be used with two GeForce 7800 GTX
cards in SLI mode?  Specifically, I'm interested in using two EVGA
GeForce 7800 GTX cards (256 MB versions - not the 512 MB, or GT) on an
NVIDIA nForce 4 SLI motherboard (AMD).

I noticed on www.slizone.com that the 30" display does NOT work with
GeForce 6800 cards, but it does not seem to say anything about the
7800 GTX:

"Note: The GeForce 6800 Ultra 512MB works in single card mode with
Apple 30 inch HD Cinema panel. However, an issue has been discovered
when running the GeForce 6800 Ultra 512MB card in SLI mode with an
Apple 30 inch HD Cinema display. This is due to an interaction between
the GPU, the application, and the ability to scale to nonnative panel
resolutions of the Apple display. All GeForce 6 series GPUs will work
with Apple 23 and 20 inch HD Cinema displays in single GPU mode."

So, I'm basically wondering if this quote also applies to the 7800
GTX, or if that issue was specific to the 6800.  Thanks!

hi, the answer is yes. Nvidia has finally patched and fixed the
problem. The problem before was that the GeForce 7800 GTX in SLI will
cause the Apple 30" display loses sync when installing the driver.
this issue was fixed in Nvidia's forceware Version 81.94. hope this
help :D

sweet - thanks!  Looks like I missed that tidbit in the release notes
for the latest driver
