Hey all...This may be common knowledge, but I'm just not sure of the answer to this one. I have a new graphics card on the way (HD4870), and my system is watercooled. I want to try out the card when I get it to make sure it functions correctly, but I don't want to disturb my current setup until I can get a water block for the 4870.
Now for the question...can I put the 4870 in my other PCI Express slot, hook up the power cables from my current card, and use the 4870 as my card to test it out without removing my 2900XT? Thanks.
