Hey all,
I have a Zotac 980Ti Amp! Extreme with 3xDP, 1xDVI-D and 1xHDMI. I want to run 2d Surround on 3 older monitors and one accessory. Here's the setup:
2D SURROUND:
Asus VW266H (1920x1200@60hz)
Asus VK266H (1920x1200@60hz)
Samsung 2693HM (1920x1200@60hz)
ACCESSORY ONLY:
Acer Xb270HU (2560x1440)
The accessory must be on DP as that is the only input, so I will be running one surround via HDMI, one via DVI and the using a DP-DVID (or DP-HDMI) adapter for the 3rd.
My questions are as follows:
1) Do all 3 connections have to be exactly the same (i.e. can I mix 1x HDMI in with 2x DVI-D with one of them being through an adapter?).
2) Can I use a passive DP-DVID or DP-HDMI adapter (i.e. do I need Active)
3) Can I mix and match brands of monitor if they have the same spec?
4) Must I use a DVI-D (could I use single link DVI)?
I had previously been able to get my Asus VW266h working together with my VK266h but I just purchased a Samsung 2693HM which is the same 1920x1200 @ 60hz monitor. I hope this wasn't an incorrect purchase.
Any and all help appreciated! Thanks,
K
