double graphyc card

[Billaviz]

Hello!

Is it possible to install two graphics cards to run three monitors?

Thanks.

[mikat]

yes, but on nvidia all display cables need to go into the first graphics card

[Minzo]

Yes.

Yes, but the available configurations in terms of display outputs will change depending on the cards, monitors and motherboard.

Interesting, can you explain better? please!

Yes, but the available configurations in terms of display outputs will change depending on the cards, monitors and motherboard.  

I have a NVidia GeForce GTX 560 TI

If the cards are in SLI (so in your case, two 560Tis in SLI), all display connections must be to the "master" card, which is the card in the PCIe slot closest to the CPU by default. Any connections to the other card will not work. 

 

If you disable SLI and just have the cards running independently, you can use connections from both cards.

ok, so I have to use independent cards, because each card only has two display ports.

thank you very much!

The GPUs must be the same for an SLI configuration, but the branding can be different. For example, a 560Ti put out by ASUS and one put out by MSI will work just fine together because they are both based on the 560Ti. But a 560Ti and a 760 for example wouldn't play well together. AMD is much more flexible in this area just FYI.

Ok, Thanks!
