Hello,

Not sure if this can be done so thought I would ask on here to find out if it is possible.

Basically, I have two setups within the same room. One is a desk with 2 displays on it for normal gaming and general stuff and the other is a racing simulator which has 3 displays on it.

I just build a pretty beast PC which features a GTX 1080 and I want to be able to use it on both my desk (for standard keyboard gaming) and on the racing simulator displays independently.

So what I want is when I am on the simulator to be able to have those displays active (NVIDIA surround) through the 3 display ports on my graphics card with the 2 desk displays disabled, and when I am at my desk I would like the simulator displays disabled with the 2 displays on my desk active through the dvi-d and hdmi outputs on the graphics card. That would mean 5 displays total connected to the graphics card, but only using a maximum of 3 at once.

Is there any way I can go about this? I wouldn't mind if the PC launched on my desk displays to start with every time and I had to do something simple to disable them and enable my simulator displays.

Thanks.
