GeForce GTX 760 Windforce

[cyclopsballs3474]

Currently running a GeForce GTX 760 Windforce. Just purchased a monitor that can run 144hz.

Will I be able to run 144hz with this graphics card? I’ve got HDMI to DVI that I’ll be using for the monitor.

Highly doubtful, since that card is really old
You haven't mentioned the make and model of your monitor.

What monitor did you buy? While the card will support 144Hz that adapter likely doesn't.

 

[cyclopsballs3474]

Dell 27" D2719HGF.

Is there an adapter I can use that will?

Or at least get higher than 60hz?

 

[bignastyid]

Just use a displayport cable, no adapter required.

 

[cyclopsballs3474]

What sort of Hz can i get with a Display port?

My other question is I’ll be running three of these monitors in the future.

If I get DP adaptors for DVI and HDMI, will I be able to run the same Hz or no?

 

[bignastyid]

Displayport will support the monitors native resolution and refresh rate of 1080p@144hz.

Your video card will not be able to run 3 of those specific monitors @144hz.

You'd either need monitors that support dp and dual link dvi or a new GPU with 3 dp connectors to use 3 of the Dell's.

If I run the other two monitors using DP to HDMI or DVI, what is the max Hz I’ll be able to run? 60hz?

I’m not going to be running any high end games. Just never had 144hz monitor or even cared about it before

 

[bignastyid]

The gtx 760 only has 1 displayport. To run 3 of those you'd be better using dp on one, hdmi on another and a dvi to hdmi adapter on the 3rd. The 2 on hdmi and dvi would be limited to 60hz.

 

[cyclopsballs3474]

Okay sounds good. I appreciate all the information.

I plan on using the main screen for gaming and the other two for productivity.

If I use NVIDIA to span across all three screens, that’ll drop all three to 60Hz, correct?

 

[bignastyid]

Yes, but for what you are wanting you need to use extended display not surround. Plus the 760 isn't going to do well gaming with surround.

 

[cyclopsballs3474]

What is extended display? Is this a program within NVIDIA control panel?

 

[bignastyid]

No it's part of windows but can be set in the nvidia control. With multiple monitors windows will give 2 options clone and extend. For productivity you want extended desktop.

Alright awesome! Thank you so much for all the information
