Hi,

I just got this card (GV-N970G1 Gaming 4GD rev 1.1), and I have 3 monitors at the moment - 2 DVI and 1 HDMI. I know for a fact these cables and monitors work together, as they were used by my old PC.

I can only seem to get the DVI-I to work.
(Only a single monitor shows up in windows, regardless of what's plugged in to other slots)

Tried:
1) A combination of different ones plugged in, or one at a time
2) Different (single link) cables
3) Swapping them while the PC is on, swapping then rebooting
4) Default, and a few different driver versions (using device driver uninstaller).
5) Fresh install windows 10

In all cases, only the DVI-I slot monitor shows up. Haven't tested the displayport slots as I don't have a cable and don't use them anyway.

I've googled around, and there's a bios update - but I'm not sure which version to use. (current version is 84.04.36.00.2F / F60). Also saw a few other threads about this, but nothing that seemed to work for me.

I'd hate to have to RMA this as I just got this, and don't want the hassle of taking everything apart, then waiting on return shipping etc. So fingers are still crossed it's a software/config issue.

Any ideas?

Do you mean 'multi display performance mode'?

Yup, tried the latest driver.. still can't get anything I plug into the DVI-D to be detected.

Looking at the box... Could it be this 'flex' display picking the wrong mode? (1 dvi + 3 displayports). Any way I can force this to test?
