I have a PC set up for flight simulation with the configuration below. I'm running three DVI monitors so the GTX 970 is maxed out using 3 ports (2 DVI, 1 HDMI to DVI). I want to add an Oculus Rift VR setup which requires its own HDMI. So my question is what's the best way to accomplish that? Some options I've considered include:
Can I add a GTX 1070 or 1080 to the second PCI-e slot on the Ranger VIII and have two separate cards active to get another HDMI and provide more speed to the Rift?
Is there a graphics card that would allow three DVI monitors plus the hdmi for the Rift on a single card? I don't need HDMI for the monitors.
Would I be better off to add a Mattrox Triplehead2go to run the three monitors off a single DVI port on the GTX 970 and free up the HDMI on the 970 for the Rift?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
Mike
