Outputting video through GPU and onboard graphics

[erickingsbury]

Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to output video through both the motherboard and GPU for my computer. My GPU (GTX 1060 6gb) has only two HDMI ports and they are both currently outputting to displays. My problem is that I want to add a third monitor and the only other HDMI port is on the actual motherboard (which is a B350 Tomahawk). My CPU is a Ryzen 7 1800x. Is it possible to output video through both the GPU and the onboard graphics simultaneously?

Hi,
No, You can't use the onboard. No integrated graphics on the CPU.
But you can use the ports on the graphics card with adapters.

it is not possible to use both at the same time. even if your Ryzen had an igpu you would still not be able to use it at the same time as the 1060.

sorry but that's just not possible yet.

Most Intel motherboards support running displays off of the iGPU simultaneously with a discrete graphics card. Not sure about Ryzen APUs, but I would hope that feature would be available there as well.

In this case there is nothing to provide a video signal.

I would buy a cheap video card and add 2 extra ports.
