It's time for Nvidia's Big Bang II. Multi-monitor SLi anyone?

Back in late July this blurry slide was leaked onto the Interwebs and after some hard work, [H]ard|Forum member Unknown-One helped us see it clearly. So where is this Big Band II that was supposed to arrive in late September? Well it may be coming in the form of the GeForce 180.10 driver release that VR-Zone just previewed. Along with the preview, VR-Zone posted these control panel screenshots that show multi-monitor SLi.

How long have you multi-monitor SLi setup owners been waiting for this? Your struggle is almost at an end!

Yeah, 178.13, 178.24...where's my ForceWare 180?

Not like I have two monitors...or two cards, even...but it's been hyped since 1982 and I want the drivers now!

This is why I left the SLI community: no multi-monitor support. Changing from 2 monitors to 1 monitor using SLI was a pain every time I wanted to play a game. They finally released some drivers that made it easier but I still decided against SLI when bought my new card. This might change things because if it could figure out that I want it to play my games on the primary monitor in SLI (duh!), then it would finally be a useful feature for me.

Go Nvidia! It's about time.
