Hello forum,

About to purchase a third GTX 780 and would love too connect all six monitors to them VIA 2, 4, 6, DVI. However, I want to game on a single monitor and occasionally the surround. How would this work? I understand that having more than one connection on multiple graphics card it doesn't allow you to "Maximize 3d performance". How would I keep the performance of sli with this setup while keep all six monitors enabled.

I can tell you that I game on 3 screens, but occasionally drop down to 1 screen for certain games.

Some games allow you to go full screen at 1920x1080, and the side 2 monitors are just black.

Others, I need to disable surround and "Activate all displays", so the screens operate independantly.

That would be my recommendation. Try that and see if it works for you.
