Is this possible?

Wferr

Hello LinusTechTips peeps, I have a question that i think i know the answer to and i was wondering if i could get someone else to verify it with me.

 

In my current rig i have dual 560ti's and i have 4 monitors, the only way for me to use all four monitors at the same time is to disable SLI, if i got a third GPU, for example a 610, would i be able to plug in two monitors into that card and re-enable SLI on my 560ti's for my main two monitors?

 

 

 

EDIT; Also my 1,200th post WEEW!~

I am a happy wuffy

It should work...

Why do you need four monitors in the first place?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           YoucouldalwaysjustbuyanamdGPU

Its nice to be able to spread out windows, one of my pet-peeves is having windows on top of another.

24 monitors... Still not enough... I need to see everything!

In reality, I only have one 23" monitor that is a huge upgrade from a ~16" monitor.

I like how there's an isolated monitor with an image of a car on it and the rest are pretty much 4chan related stuff along with er... debugging or something?  :lol:

 

Arson, murder, and jaywalking! Yay!  :P

As far as the OP, I have no idea if it will work. I'm curious to know the answer myself.

 

But you people have found a legit desk setup that puts my 6 monitors (7 counting my TV) to shame.

I think those set-ups are common in fields like air control, satellite monitoring, security rooms - some might use TVs -, and I guess intelligence agencies. Typically, I would say people working in video-editing, digital art, video game development, and sometimes gaming would not go near that many monitors and regular web-surfing and stuff would probably not even go past having a single monitor since we have tablets and phones that work as well.
