Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Thank you. I wont exchange because what I'm doing isn't very demanding and a 670 or someting would cost a couple hundred...
So I can pick ANY Nvidia card and plug it in and it will work? I'll likely look for something very cheap and quiet for low power. I might consider a second extra small...
It's that simple? Damn..
Would the best option be to buy one of those external TH2Go devices, or another cheap video card? Noise is a concern - price is not.
I'd like to be able to mix and match resolutions quite freely. The Matrox is looking attractive to me because I think it would be less...
I ordered a computer specifically stating it was for 3 monitors and was given this card. I asked in another thread here about connecting 3 monitors and was led to believe it would certainly work as it has 1 display port to use alongside the other two connections.
Now today upon double...
Well sorry for the necrobump :D
I have this PC now with an EVGA GTX570 HD. Just one monitor right now, but today I've come across MANY sources which state that Nvidia cards simply CANNOT support 3 monitors without 2 cards no matter what connections...
That seems very contradictory to the info...
GTX680 was suggested - apparently very quiet. It's out of my budget so we'll have to find something else, just thought I'd check that my suspicions are correct - that card is way over my requirements for this game right?
Alright, I emailed them asking if I can get a different card and suggesting the 7850 as aperformance estimate. I'll see what else they suggest, which will likely be influenced by noise given it's an audio pc.
Hello guys :)
I posted a while back concerning a card for my new personal recording studio PC. GFX in this application is not important, but I wanted to run 3 separate monitors.
I learned that I can do that as long as it has 3 ports and ONE of them has to be DisplayPort. Great :)
Now...
Sweet! Cheers. All sorted then - just need to confirm with the computer company when they build it that this video card will definitely have those ports. I don't like the fact that various cards with the same name can vary..Makes me unsure what I'm doing haha.
Just curious why that is? Is it...
I meant the monitors are all the same and have all those 3 ports on each :)
Cool, thanks :)
So how would I connect the final (HDMI) output on the card to one of those three options on the monitors?
Bumping for a quick question save opening a new thread!
Just to recap I decided to settle for 3 monitors, no Eyefinity, extended desktop on a card with
1 x DisplayPort
1 x Dual Link DVI-I
1 x HDMI
The monitors have
1 Digital Visual Interface connectors (DVI-D) with HDCP
1...
Thanks again!
Yes it's not for gaming. The scan configuration for this particular system (though I'm sure I can email to ask for other cards) suggests http://www.scan.co.uk/products/1gb-sapphire-hd-6670-ultimate-1600mhz-gddr3-gpu-800mhz-480-cores-dl-dvi-dport-hdmi-passive as the only will...
I have a lot of slots but I want to stick with one card because I can get the setup I want for like £70 that way. Also I want least noise as possible and power consumption is a plus too.
Bastage, that could be a good idea. If I'm looking at an all DP card, is it safe to presume one with 3 ports...
