Windows based NT OSs was design from the ground up for GUI (Windows NT 3.x, 4.x, 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8.x, 10). Everything interacts via object, and not pipelines like under Linux based OSs. This is also why Linux terminal is more powerful to use than Windows will ever be. The command prompt of Windows (same with PowerShell) does translation work to give you that command line experience. While under Linux, it is the reverse.
 
So by using Command Prompt or PowerShell as your daily productivity space, under Windows, will make your experience painful and slower.
 
That said, nothing stops you from starting the command prompt and hit F11.
 

The way games are rendered are fundamentally different from the modern era and the 1990's and early 2000's. AFAIK, Voodoo cards used interlacing, where one GPU would render every other line. I don't know if there were compatibility issues back then, since that was before my time. More modern multi GPU setups require compatibility layers to be enabled within the drivers. In the early 2000's, it took Nvidia about 2 years to add enough compatibility layers to officially support around 100 games when Nvidia's SLI hit the market.
 
Today is a whole different beast though. Nowadays, there's rendering modes that simply don't work with multi GPUs depending on how it's implemented. Temporal AA is famous for not being compatible with SLI, because it screws with the alternate frame rendering (AFR) mode.
 
Games don't need to "support" multi GPU setups per say, because most of it is still handled by the drivers, but there is a certain amount of responsibility that developers needs to account for when developing a game. If developers use rendering methods that mess with the foundation of modern multi GPU technology, then there's nothing AMD or Nvidia can do about it.

No clue whats on Netflix , but maybe dark star? Its a John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon film. Extremely low budget. the first 45minits had a 1k budget.

Honestly I don't know what inlet was thinking with x299. Id say no unless if you can get a really good deal on a top end CPU. Some boards are cheap but for a reason, like the x299 raider, its not a very good board. I would not pay anything over 75$ new for one.
 
And this is coming form someone that had a x79 system and jumped to x299. I sold the x299 system and went back to my x79 setup and drooped in a xeon, second GPU and never looked back.

It always been the drivers, not just the game. Whatever your code is, drivers can interpret it to run on multiple gpus if your game engine supports.
Back then it was more dependent on drivers.

wow. They do look alike.
But they are different enough that I can't see anything coming out of this.
