I've been planning to get an auxiliary monitor for quite a while now, but I've had an idea of having two auxiliary monitors, because why not? Only trouble is, I'm not sure if Nvidia cards support this setup.

 

What I'd have: 3x1080p displays in surround with 2 either 1080p or 2560x1080p displays above them as auxiliary monitors. Anyone know if this is possible? Maybe daisy chaining DP would work?

 

I'll be using two Titan Blacks, so I can have monitors on different cards if that helps.

It should work fine with the auxiliary monitors connected to a separate card.

 

Dang Titan Blacks? iSaeko where do you get this money?!

I work and just pay for what I need (food, car insurance, petrol and other living costs). I saved up for ages to get my dual 780Tis, then sold them to buy a Titan Black, then saved up again to get another (:

Really? What exactly do you do? Sigh... I'd probably be able to get better hardware and furniture quicker if I didn't need to pay half the households living expenses.... 

 

God money sure disappears fast after I obtain it...

Btw that's a nice profile background, do you read the Kagerou Days/Daze manga?

I'm a student, so I just work part time. I take all the overtime I can though, and my job pays pretty well for what it is. 

 

A lot of my living costs are covered by my student loan, so a fair portion of my working income is disposable. 

 

I've been meaning to, but haven't got round to it yet. Still reading Kizumonogatari

And by that you mean you are paying it back later with interest.

 

This is literally in the "what not to do 101" seminar at most colleges/universities. But I wont judge.

Ah... I kinda envy you. 

 

Anyway if you start Kagerou and get up to date to the latest chapter let me know I can give you a ETA on the next translated release(Part of the translation group). 

 

Don't forget to show us desktop set up pictures once you have all your monitors set up :P

Paying it back at a very slow rate after I earn a certain amount of money. 

 

I'm only using my student maintenance loan for living costs (what it's meant for) and then use my earned money to buy stuff. I don't spend my actual loan money on recreational things unlike a lot of my friends do (:
