Not sure about max supported resolution on a gtx 780

Moharmate

I have a 3 monitor setup but all three are different sizes I have one 23" 1080p one Dell 27" 1440p and one ancient beast that I found in the back of a cupboard thats at least 10 years old now running 1280x1024.

 

I am hoping to replace the two smaller monitors with a cheap korean 1440p monitor from ebay and using vesa mounting arms to support them. 

 

Now I was wondering if a GTX780 can output to 3x1440p monitors and run them at full resolution and not be limited by software or anything. I wont be gaming with all three as I am not a fan of surround and hate the bezels interrupting the gaming experience.

so, yes.

 

heck, if my gtx 650ti boost is pushing a triple monitor setup, then the 780ti can too

I'm running 3 1440p monitors on two 780Ti's in SLI so I don't think you'll run into any issues. Just a note though, before I had my 3rd 1440p monitor I was using a 1080p screen with the other two and the GPU temps were quite a bit elevated (around 60C idling, 78C under load) and I found out that this was because with the difference in resolution and an offset of 1Hz on refresh rate. When you get your monitors, make sure their resolutions and refresh rate are the same all around if you want to keep your GPU temps down.

If you're not using it in Surround, that'll be no problems. 

 

Surround is incompatible with different monitors though - whether you're gaming with it or not.

Thanks for help, I wasn't so sure because the previous video card I had was a GTX 560 and that couldn't support more than 2 monitors at a time.

When you mean a 1Hz offset is that because one was running at 59 and the others 60? and that was causing your card to run hot because of having everything running out of sync?

To be honest, I can't definitively answer that since both the resolution and refresh rate were variables, it was something that I noticed though. With that being said, 60C is still a "safe" temperature so it's not like it was hurting anything.
