Title: Graphics card to 3 monitors, how?
Post by: Maniac618 on October 17, 2013, 09:39:52 AM
Hi all,

n00b alert...

I have this gfx card:

http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4647#sp

How can I connect it to 3 monitors that have DVI in and have the max resolution?

It states: "4096 X 2160(via a single HDMI connector and not supported with two DVI connectors)"

Does that mean I need to find a cable that goes from HDMI at one end and splits into 3 dvi connectors? Does this even exist?

Thanks.

two monitors connected with DVI, and one monitor connected with either a HDMI - DVI or DP to DVI.
then you need to create a surround view setup within the nvidia driver, how exactly its im not sure as i mainly use ATI cards.
