question about 3 monitor setup?
Ok so im running 2x 24" LCD´s on a Asus GTX 470.
Is there a way to connect another 24" to that card and have ISboxer recognise it as a stand alone monitor? or do i need to buy another GF card?
I know there is some splitter thing you can connect 2 monitors to 1 port but would that do the trick?

I might be wrong here, But for Nvidia cards, to run more than two monitors you would need an additional card.
Now ATI erm AMD now, Has the Eyefinity cards which can run 3 or more, But need a powered USB Dongle thingie for the monitor. (DVI)

Tight, IF you do grab that matrox thing,please let us know how well it works? I've seen it pop up now for years, but never really heard a review from one of us.

So I have a single ATI 6870 video card, I want to link 3 monitors, do I need one display port adapter or 2? The card has 2 DVI out ports.

From the Diamond web page...
1 Dual Link DVI, 1 Single Link DVI, HDMI and 2 Mini Display Port
So I'm guessing here,
1 monitor on the Dual Link DVI, 1 on the single link DVI (which would be shared with the HDMI, and then 1-2 on the Mini Display port.
I think that is right, but hopefully Fenril or one of the other guru's will come along and Confirm or correct this.

Sounds right to me. As you say, if you got the adapters for it you should be able to run four monitors off that card. Hooray displayport!Originally Posted by F9thRet
