GTX 660 -3 monitor help

[arumley]

Hi, I bought a GTX 660 and trying to run 3 independent monitors for work. All monitors are ASUS ProArt monitors-two connected to DVI and one connected to DisplayPort. The one connected by DisplayPort won't show up? I have latest drivers. Tried everything I can think of. Any help figuring this out will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hello... http://www.geforce.com/optimize/guides/how-to-correctly-configure-geforce-gtx-680-surround#1 DisplayPort must be using a Dual-Link DVI adapter, seems to be mentioned a few times in the article.

I don't think you have to use adapters. Does your monitor have an HDMI port as well? Try HDMI and see if it works.

I tried HDMI also-no go.

Have you tried all three on DVI?

finally got it working. Had a hdmi to dvi connector and it works now. Weird! wonder why the Display Port cable and HDMI didn't work alone?

DP is for a fourth monitor and so might not activate until the first three are seen?

 

[arumley]

Good to know. Maybe I'll have to add another monitor now! Thanks

I may be wrong as it's been a while since I read up on Nvidia's multi monitor equivalent of AMD's Eyefinity but from what I recall it did seem simpler to set up.
