Question 1

Is it compatible with Windows 8 OS?

Accepted Answer

For a system using two AMD FirePro V5900 graphics cards AMD specifies a minimum of a 500 watt or greater. So for a single card setup, I wouldn't go below a 450 watt psu.

Question 2

Can it support 2 HD monitors well for long periods of time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I purchased this card primarily for video editing in Adobe Premiere. Overall playback is fairly smooth in Premiere. However, during process-heavy rendering it can leave a bit to be desired at times.

It has run flawlessly since I purchased it, and I have experienced no issues running dual HD monitors on it for 10+ hours straight. This card has made me a FirePro fan, but in hindsight I would have liked to purchase the next model, or two, higher for increased performance.
