Where to put the power..

Does the GPU/Vid card that runs the UI make a difference.. would love to use decent on board video so I can save all my Dual GTX card outputs and have up to 8 available. I have read some posts that say the GPU running the UI is the most important.. and some that say its not.. whats the correct answer?

I run up to 8 outs at 1280x720 per head normally.. not many layers... its a video wall system for film and television work.

Yes that's your primary card so it makes all the difference in the world!

The former is right and the latter is not.

Sounds like a perfect application for one GTX GPU and two Datapath X4 each splitting a 2560x1420 in 4 1280x720 screens.
