So I'm about to buy a few monitors for my computer (A couple of these). My current monitor is 1920x1080 along with the others I'm planning to get. All the monitors are HDMI only, but my graphics card (GTX 1070 Founder's Edition) only has one HDMI port. The other inputs are all DisplayPort.
To fix this problem, I'll need a couple of DP to HDMI adaptors. I was planning on buying two passive adapters (This one to be exact.) , but this raised the question: Would passive adaptors work with surround, or would I need all active adaptors? I've heard 'Yes' and 'No', but I'm not getting a clear answer. What do you think?
