Hey guys,

Trying to setup a new rig and was thinking of the R9 280x. Ive read 3 multi screen is possible but is it possible to also have the extra port to connect to a HD TV? Was looking at the Gigabyte Windforce version. Or please direct me towards the correct card for this setup.

Cheers

Cheers for the reply. Would you know if its possible to play a game on the 3 multi monitor and have something else playing on the tv output?

this is how my setup was.

i had the two 7950's running to one monitor and the other two monitors are displaying other content via the motherboard.

as long as your CPU has some integrated graphics it should work

crossfire configuration that powered just one screen to see how games like crysis look at absolute max settings. I really was not that impressed with multi-monitor setups and am personally looking forward to changing my setup to a 2560x1440 single monitor and the largest 4k that I can afford.
