The specs say it supports 3 monitors, but doesn't specify at what resolution. Will my 3x 2560x1440 monitors work with this laptop?

Yes, the graphics card supports that resolution. however it will lag in games with that resolution but it sounds good for normal usage. If you want to play with x3 monitors i'd recommend a desktop instead (i bought this bcuz i travel oftenly)

I know it will support 3 at 1080p. I don't have any 2560 x1440 so I'm not sure on that. But it is a great laptop. I will say there are some cons. It gets very hot very fast when playing games. Also I have experienced many blue screens. But when this computer is working it great. I have owned two of these both get hot only one has the blue screen issue.

I don't have monitors of that extreme resolution. I am not a gamer. Use my laptop for automotive diagnostic tools, business research and information discovery. My monitors are much lower resolution and work fine for my needs. Sorry I can't help.To the other responder: It is my understanding that blue screens are usually a Windows software issue. Maybe reinstallation or tech help can fix the problem.

I have two 27inch monitors each with 2560X1440 hooked up to the graphics cards without any problems (I am on Win8). My monitors are http://www.monoprice.com/Product?seq=1&fo;rmat=2&p;_id=10509&CAWELAID;=320013720000010305&CAGPSPN;=pla&catargetid;=320013720000011350&cadevice;=c&gclid;=CIjV_7qSvb0CFSqXOgodzDEAaQ

I'm using mine with an AMD W7000 graphics card. The only time I get 2560x1600 is with a straight through Display Port cable. Any otherl configuration, even with the best adapters (even DVI-D), gets 1920x1080 displayed. No disc required with Windows 7 or Windows Server 2012 R2. After a couple of boots it picked the device itself. Not sure how many though as I was installing all the other drivers required and those needed a lot of reboots.

There are 2 DisplayPort plugs, 1 HDMI, 1 VGA and 1 DVI. I've had no problems running a dual-monitor setup, but I doubt that whatever humble business laptop you're docking this into has the GPU capability to simultaneously display on 4 monitors. A better question you should be asking yourself is why on earth would you want a quad-monitor setup for docking your laptop. Swordfish was just a movie dude.

If you use Both DVI ports, and the HDMI at once, 3. I'm pretty sure you can use the DisplayPort to get 4 but I wouldn't expect good gaming framerates with more than 2 monitors.

Most laptops can handle up to 3 monitors with the help of an external USB video dock...I have a Sony VAIO and i am using 3 monitors with the aid of an external dock. If your question is to achieve this with just your laptop, then I am not sure the video card can handle multiple laptops just by itself.

I am using an i5-4570 and doing this right now. You can actually hook up 3 monitors (using the HDMI port for the 3rd) at once.

It supports 4 monitors. However only 3 of the monitors will display your game during multi-monitor gaming, whereas the forth monitor will just display something else.

Yes it will support up to 3 monitors max (ex: 2 mini display port -mdp and 1 hdmi or 1 hdmi, 1 mdp and onboard monitor) as for 4k, can display but most likely bog down to 30fps or so when gaming. Haven't had the chance to get a 4k monitor and try it out, but I have 2 benq gaming monitors connected through MDP and have constant 60fps on high graphics on games I play.

The card supports three options of inputHDMIDvi d dual link (might be dvi i dual link. Whatever dual link belongs to)And standard rgb input. So there is a possibility for the card to support a 3 monitor input.

Yes for two but no for three. Windows 8.1. I ordered this card based on the answer below that indicated support for three monitors. The NVIDIA control panel detects my third monitor but then won't drive it with a warning "this GPU supports up to 2 displays." Crapola! Don't waste your time thinking this will drive three monitors. Shame on Nvidia - it's specs are silent on the number of monitors supported: http://www.evga.com/products/Specs/GPU.aspx?pn=0fb8a542-3e4f-4edf-af6f-a2bdf7ae8727

Dear Vinh,Thank you for your question regarding our BlueRigger mini DisplayPort to DVI cable! The cable is a single link cable, not dual link. It will not support the 2560x1440 resolution.Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any additional questions.Thanks,BlueRigger LLCservice@bluerigger.com

Most HDMI systems can't display 2560x1440. (Some very new ones can, but Macs for example can't.) Displayport is a more reliable way to get full res. For a mac, get a cable that goes from thunderbolt/mini-displayport on one end and full-sized displayport on the other end. Mine only came with a DVI cable.

I have two 27 inch monitors and it works good for that.. I don't know if it supports three but I'm thinking you could hook up to your dvi and hdmi ports so you have a few ways of hooking up 3 monitors

Everything I have read about it says 4gb is for multiple monitors. And (I'm not 100% sure about this) higher resolutions.

All depends on how much fps you want, it will only support two if you want More than 60 fps. Otherwise this card has two dvi and one hdmi so yeas you can support three different monitors.

Hi Thank you for your interest. Yes it supports 2560x1440 through DVI-D port. Thank you.
