Hi all, I just finished my first build and am about to embark on buying three screens of pure gaming awesomeness. My issue is that I want my Xbox one to be able to play on 3 screens and the way I found I could do it is through this little device right here.

My question is whether my 2 crappy graphics cards can handle it. So far I've been gaming(Starcraft 2) on extreme or ultra settings with no issues whatsoever.

here's my build:
PSU: 650W
CPU: Intel i7 6700K
GPU: 2 Asus Geforce GTX 950 SLI
HDD: Toshiba 1 TB
SSD: Samsung 250 GB
Motherboard: Asus z170 Pro ATX
Chasis: Phantom NZXT full tower

It's my first build so if you have any feedback it would be very much appreciated
Thanks in advance!

It won't work. The xbox one will only output at 1080p. The device can only capture that resolution and display it. At best you might be able to stretch the image across all 3 screen, but it would look terrible.
The best you can do is display the same image on all 3 screens. You will not be able to get the xbox one to treat all three screens as a single display.

In the past when consoles did support multimonitor gaming it requires game support, multiple consoles and multiple copies of the game. I don't know if any xb1 game supports it atm. But here is a link to how it works with forza 3 on the x360

My bad, I should have asked how you have your displays setup. He uses a 3x1 portrait setup. The end result is a monitor with a aspect ratio very close to 16:9(1080p aspect ratio). The image is distorted but not by anything noticeable. If he were to use a 3x1 landscape setup it would not work.

That said you could get it to work if you setup your monitors like his. Your PC will handle it just fine.
