How does this work with 3 display support? Do you plug a monitor into each port (HDMI, VGA, DVI)?

Yes, I used this GPU with a Hackintosh (MasOS 10.8.4 on Dell 755 PC). I had three displays connected and operational at the same time.I could get audio to the monitor/TV through DVI (-> HDMI cable) or alternately through the HDMI-> HMDI cable or alternately using external standalone speakers. Your mileage may vary!!...EAB

Yes. That's how it connects. Pretty good low cost solution. I have two monitors and a 40" Samsung HDTV connected.

I've currently got mine hooked up through HDMI to a 22" and a 24" through DVI, it supports all the standard features for dual monitor (and I'd wager triple)

I use it with 2 at that setting with no issues to work or game play, I don't see a problem with it. I looked at the paperwork that came with it, it claims to support 4 displays. The ports are one displayport 1.2, one hdmi, one DVI-I, and one DVI-D.

The card has the ability to use three monitors. Just make sure one of the monitors has a HDMI port. You have two DVI ports and one HDMI.

Yes, excellent value for FHD screens. I plugged 2 into DVI and the third into a displayport to DVI adapter. Great for 3 monitor AMD Eyefinity/Nvidia Surround.

Yes. We had three on it for a couple weeks and added a fourth today. Two are native DisplayPort and the other two are adapted to DVI--it supports all four. Download the correct driver before you install; the disc that came with mine had the wrong driver.

Instead of plugging in a monitor to each of the different ports, you might be able to daisy-chain your monitors through the DisplayPort. Your monitors will have to support DP 1.2.

Yes. If you want two displays you only need DVI cables. IF you want more than two you need to purchase a mini display port to plug the third or more monitors in. I have Four and it runs awesome with BF3 and FRYCRY 3

As a matter of fact, you can use up to 3 monitors at the same time with this graphics card. The card has 1x DVI-I, 1x HDMI, and 1x MiniDisplayPort. Since most people have monitors that have DVI or HDMI connections, you'll probably use those. If you happen to have a monitor that only has a VGA connector, you're in luck -- the card ships with a DVI-I -&gt; VGA adaptor.

Hi, Yes you are correct, there are two displayport interfaces and one VGA.Thanks, PCrush

I'm using it with 1 passive displayport-to-dvi connector, one active hdmi-to-vga connector, and the dvi port. It will also deliver VGA through its dvi port so you can use a passive adapter from dvi to vga.

Yep, that's my setup. I'm almost certain you can even hook up a third to the DisplayPort.

You can connect two displays with what comes in the box. You will need to buy mini active display port to whatever (hdmi, dvi etc) for each additional display. Active is important and, from what I remember, there are some adapters that say they are active and won't work.It was a while ago, but I used 8 Accell B087B from Amazon and that works fine.

I read somewhere that, it supports a resolution of 2560x1600. so it should support dual monitors if the total resolutions falls under this. I'm using nVidia GPU, so I never tried the onboard hdmi or DVI.

Your video card may not be compatible with three displays. Check the manual of the video card for more information. Also, your monitor has to be able to communicate with the video card. Some older monitors are not capable of this.

It has a VGA port and DVI Port. So you can have 2 displays, one connected to each port. It cannot do 2 VGA or 2 DVI though.

I am running with dual monitors and it works perfectly. However, it does support up to three monitors or 3+1 in Nvidia surround.
