GTX 1060 can't output to two monitors at the same time?

lilj0unior · Nov 28, 2016

So I just finished building my gaming pc and as I'm getting things set up. I plugged an HDMI port and a Dual Link DVI to the gtx 1060 and when I opened the pc, it only popped up on the Dual Link DVI monitor and it didnt show on the monitor which is connected with an HDMI. So I said whatever and tried connecting the DVI to the motherboard CPU graphics and the HDMI to the 1060 but only the HDMI worked and the Monitor which is connected to the motherboard by DVI isn't detecting my pc?? How can I connect 2 displays to one GPU???

I believe for two displays to one GPU, you have to use DisplayPort. HDMI and DVI-D won't work. Neither will plugging one into the mobo and one into the GFX card.

When you first startup it will only display on 1 monitor. You need to go into display settings or the nvidia control panel and enable and configure the other display(s). This is after you get drivers installed of coarse.

If you want to use the 1060 and the igpu you need to ensure the igpu is enabled in the bios as many boards disable the igpu in the presence of a dedicated gpu.
