I just got my third monitor, but I realized that I don't have all the right cords to plug them all in to my graphics card. I have 3 Displayport, 1 HDMI, and 1 DVI port in my graphics card. I don't have any display port cords, so I use 1 DVI and 1 HDMI for 2 of the monitors, but have no way to plug in the 3rd monitor. Is it possible for me to plug the third monitor in to my motherboard using HDMI and have it work simultaneously with the other 2 monitors?

The Xeon E3 1231v3 doesn't have integrated graphics.

Is this in the build in your signature with the Xeon 1231v3? If so, you cannot as the CPU doesn't have an iGPU.

If you had a normal CPU sure it'd work, alas as mentioned Xeons do not have iGPUs
