Hey guys, this might have been asked previously but didnt seem to find it. I want to know what adapter would work best to hooking up two Asus PB278Q with a resolution of 2560x1440. I understand that the DVI ports grant that resolution but I am not entirely sure and want to ask before spending anything.

TL;DR?
What is the best way to hook up two 2560x1440 monitors to a GTX 780 Ti.
 
Solution


Just use 2 Dual-Link DVI, or DVI-D for short, cables. Just make sure they are true Dual link DVI cables. You can tell the difference between DVI-I and DVI-D because the DVI-D has all the prongs and the DVI-I cables are missing prongs in the middle. They both hook up the same way, but the DVI-I cables will not output 1440p...

These might be a little long depending on your set-up, but these are the ones you're looking for.

thank you mjranew, will purchase one and hook them up later on
 
Your GTX780ti will have two dvi connectors, each capable of 2560 x 1440.
I have two 2560 x 1600 monitors connected to a GTX780 that way.

If, by chance you need the sound from one of the monitors, then use the hdmi connection.
Your monitor will come with several different cables, no need to buy anything extra.
