Hello,
I have a MSI GTX 770 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127741
and an MSI Z77a GD65 Gaming MotherBoard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130686
My monitor set up will be:
1920 x 1080 ASUS monitor (Main, and for gaming) (DVI)
A not as great 6 yr old Dell monitor (secondary, always in use) (VGA)
And a pretty good Samsung 42 inch TV (occasional use for movies and shows) (HDMI)
I'm putting my build together tomorrow (it will be my first build)
My questions are:
should I use ONLY the GPUs video out ports?
Or should I mix it up with the Mother Board's video out ports to put less stress on the GPU?
The only one I really need to run through the GPU is my main gaming monitor.
Is it a good idea to connect my other two displays to my mother board instead of my GPu?
Can I still have Dual or triple screens? Will the desktop display across all screens?
Please offer some knowledge!
I'll be running Windows 7 with an i5 3570k cpu if that is important.
