HDMI 3 Monitors

[steveruff]

Hi - I've got 3 monitors running on a Nvidia GeForce 347.52 driver. This runs the 3rd monitor via a Mirage driver (Intel) is there a card or way of running 3 DVI monitors through one card?

Cheers

This depends on the physical connections available on your card.
If you have two DVI connectors and one HDMI, then you can easily use two DVI to DVI cables and one HDMI to DVI cable, or HDMI to DVI adapter with DVI to DVI cable.
If there is no HDMI connector, then you can use a DisplayPort to DVI adapter for the 3rd monitor.

What is the model of your card?
Do you mean DVI monitors as you have written in your post or HDMI as you have written in the title?

I wouldn't get tied up about it seeing how hdmi and dvi are pretty interchangeable.

This card, like any other modern Nvidia card, can have four displays connected.
It isn't powerful enough though to run high end games on even one of these monitors.
The other issue I see with this card is that it does not have a DisplayPort output.
The fourth monitor will always be an analog video connection via DSUB (VGA).

From the post, they already have the card anyway and are looking at how to connect the monitors.
This is relatively easy with adapters since the video stream of single link DVI-D and HDMI are compatible.
Dual-link DVI (resolutions above 1920x1080 or refresh rate above 60 Hz) is not compatible with HDMI.
You also lose HDMI audio support using a DVI to HDMI or HDMI to DVI adapter or cable.
