I have two GTX 8800 installed - there are some weird issues with the "multimedia" side of things and
there seems to be some GL issues - but for normal 2D it works 

The multimedia issue shows if you have a browser open using the extension and you start
a kplayer/mplayer - It give an error saying that the Multimedia extension is not loaded -
close the browser and it seems to work again ;-) - I am using Xorg 7.2
