Hi everyone, so I am going to connect three monitors sie by side together, my gpu is EVGA GeForce GTX 760 and it has 1 HDMI, 1 DVI-I, 1 DVI-D and 1 Displayport. I plan on connecting them through 1 HDMI and 2 DVI-Ds (I head a DVI-D will fit into the DVI-I slot, correct me if im wrong) since my monitor only has VGA, HDMI and DVI-D slots. Since I will have three monitors, do I need DVI-D Dual link or single link? thanks!
 
Solution
Single link cable is enough for 1080p monitors, dual link is only needed for monitors with very high resolutions (2560*1440) and/or refresh rates (1080p @120Hz etc).
DVI-D cable will fit into a DVI-I output.
The card itself supports all 4 outputs on it simultaneously as well so you're good to go. :)
