6 Monitor Surround

[Anthony_80]

Hey guys need help, having difficuty setting up surround on 6 monitor set-up, looking to get 2x3 surround mode, using Nvidia software, dual MSI Geforce GTX TF 960 Cards with SLI Bridge, system will read 2x2 and all the other 1X's but no 2X3

You can't go for 6 displays with this setup. GTX 960 supports up to 4 displays, having 2 in SLI doesn't mean the support goes to 8 since one GPU is basically a slave to the other and can't perform this action on its own so the displays are still shared. If you want more than 4 displays you will have to get different GPU or add a 3rd GPU which is a different model from GTX 960 and use it as PhysX device and get output from it..

So what your saying is in order to get the surround mode I'm looking for i either need to add a third card and use that as a master and slave the other two, or change out the two 960 and go with a totally different set of gpu's, the two gtx 960 are handling the six displays and can handle up to 8 altogether, i just cant get that surround that i'm looking for.
