Just wondering...

[Giganizer300PRO]

For example if one has 4 monitors and 4 GPUs, does he need to plug each monitor in to a different GPU and what would that do? If not how then? What are the options and what is the best?

How many GPUs do you need for 4 monitors (for ex. 980s/780s)?

The monitors get plugged into one GPU.

i think for nvidia you'd need two gpus to run 4 monitors

There are 4 monitors...

If the GPU's have enough outputs to power the 4 monitors you plug the monitors into one GPU, otherwise if the GPU doesn't have enough ports you still don't plug them into other GPU's you just get adapters/Y splitters

Also please follow your topics so you get notified when someone posts in them.

Only one of them will work (The 1 plugged into the main GPU)

If your interested in 4 GPU SLi surround with up to 5 monitors and 1 accessory display.

I am just wondering, I just got my build and there's no way I can afford SLI.
