Video display specs G5 2.7DP -- can I run two DVI monitors at once?

Greetings,

I have a G5 2.7DP
M9749LL/A

With ATI Radeon 9650 with 256MB DDR SDRAM, one single-link and one dual-link DVI port

Can I:

port 1 (DVI-D): Apple 30" cinema display, resolution 2560x1600
port 2:(DVI-S): 20" DVI display, such as older Apple Studio Display (using ADC to DVI adapter) - Resolution: 1280 x 1024

Can I run both at maximum bit-depth (at the same time) ?

I did not find any specs or discussion about using both ports at the same time.
I currently use both ports, but not with the 30" cinema display -- rather, I use only a 1280x1024 on DVI port 1, and I have a VGA 1280x1024 on port 2 (using a DVI-VGA adapter).

My goal is to run the APple 30" cinema on port 1, and the 1280x10-24 DVI on port 2.

Can I do this, and will it be happy?

Thanks,

J

Hi Jeremy, yes, should be no problem even at Millions of colors on both.
