So I have a 4K TV about 5 meters away from my PC I already have 2 monitors attached from my PC I have a Mini display port and a hdmi port spare on my graphics card. I was wondering if there was a way to get my tv work of my PC but still be able to use my PC normally when my TV is off. I know I could go buy a 5metre HDMI cable that supports 4K and then keep changing my setting on Nvidia control panel when I turn my TV on and off, wondering if there was an elegant solution. I assume if I mirrored my main monitor onto the tv it would work how I wanted it but as my monitors are 1080p I imagine my tv wouldn't be displaying 4k. Does anyone know any good software or hardware to sort this issue, or is there something in the Nvidia control panel I'm missing or misunderstanding?

atm i am running two displays, one monitor one TV

when my TV turns off, it auto disconnects from the computer, so im not sure if its just my TV or what

 

besides, nothing is wrong if your computer keeps connecting to your tv anyway

 

and yea if you mirror a 1080p display to a 4k, it will be following the smaller res

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately
