nVdia video cards how do you go about running different resolutions on dual displays

[oqvist]

I got a GTX 580 and windows 7. For movies I want the opton to run DVI or VGA simultaneously as HDMI. I use HDMI to get access to HD audio. However I have a 720p LCDTV and like all LCD TVs their native resolution is NOT 720p. It´s 1366x768.

For 3D movies I instead need to run DVI for my 120 hertz monitor. That I run at 1080p so there I may be fine. As long as I can run 120 hertz on one monitor and 60 on the other that is? I don´t want to gamble and accidently fry my LCD TV sending a 120 hz signal through it.

In the Nvidia Control Panel, the Display Resolution Tab allows you to set the refresh rate for each monitor.

This, plus I am pretty sure the tv won't accept the signal if it is not right, shouldn't fry it.

I switch between my computer monitor and a 720p tv as well and find it annoying that the latest version of Nvidia Control Panel always defaults to 720p and I have to change the resolution to 1368x768 each time, not a big deal but kind of lame in my opinion.

Each monitor has its own independent settings. There should be no risk.
