Thanks for the tip í was planning to do triple monitor setup í need vga to hdmi cable.

[@AdamHeath-pe5jl]

Hey, thanks a lot man. Problem solved. I’m up and running. Laptop with 3 externals, all running different shit and just as fast as before. It took less than 10 minutes from start to finish AFTER watching this and trust me, I’m about as tech savvy as a fn caveman. You made it easy. I wish I had clicked on this one first. TWO NIGHTS AND 15 VIDEOS AGO!! 🤣

[@Eastbaypisces]

How u do it? Can u just use hdmi switch?

[@Gottemgotty]

Imagine Having to get the proper adapters and cords for all of your monitors especially if you're using mini display port to HDMI adapters and having to mix DVI D to HDMI to a HDMI 2 mini display port adapter its craziness I tell you craziness! XD

[@abdulrehmanbutt9525]

Can you make a video of setting up 3 monitors (Extended Display Setup) over a laptop? Technically that makes 4 screens (1 for Laptop + 3 Extended Displays). I need to know what equipment I need and what sort of USB (support) is required in order so I can setup multiple monitors for extended display settings.

[@nanthanielamparado3667]

Hello, can you have a sample video for the active splitter you mentioned at 9:32. I'm setting up a dual monitor like what you did in this video and I tried to connect individual splitters from each monitor so I can duplicate them separately to a TV. And it didn't work. Can you help or give an advice to how I can make it work?

[@eyesrgrey1873]

I have three connected but the two displays are locked as one. The computer is only recognizing 2 monitors yet all three are on and there are things in all the screens

Going from digital to analog without active adapter? How does a passive cable generates all the analog signals (R, G, B, Vsync, Hsync)?

[@ThisOLmaan]

i always thought one can use each monitor independently with out having to open a browser and Draging each to with monitor.

[@johnw593]

Now, how do you do all that wirelessly? Obivously the power chords can't be wireless, but what about all the DVI, DP HDMI cables? Any way to shed those via dongles. What brand?/ How to set up?

I have 2 monitors connected via display port, and third one tv via 2.1 hdmi cable, when they are all powered on everything is fine, but when i turn off my TV second monitor turn off also, and every time i have to go into nvidia control panel to enable that monitor, what is fix for this so my second monitor dont turn off?

[@yasiralivlog]

Is there any quality change when we use different cables like DP, HDMI or VGA ????

[@ToastyDIY]

Usually HDMI won't allow you to use the max refresh rate on your monitor. Its recommended to use DP if possible at least for your main monitor!

[@alexbunbury7618]

Hi there.... What graphics card should i consider if i want to add 6+ monitors? Thanks

[@ROSE_VGA]

Why would u want 6 monitors

[@atrain132]

I've got a Sim racing set up with quad monitors. Even when I just try to use a triple monitor setup, I cannot for the life of me get the games to run in triple screen. Triple screen, or quad screen works perfectly on windows, but not the games. I've tried just about everything, but can't get it to work.

i was meant to look for a video that connect to my laptop not a tower, , and my laptop is limtedt to its ports

At 5 mins, youe first monitor wasn't on, how did you get it to work? 3 of my monitors are connected but one which worked before isn't working unless I disconnect the new third one.

[@Reconstorm]

We have the same issue. Did you fix it already?

[@darieladatofelhandler3650]

How’d you get monitor 1 to turn on? You skipped that part. I’m also getting only 2 of 3 monitors showing a display. The other monitor is recognized in the computer but stays blank.

[@Reconstorm]

Hi. I have the same problem right now. I had 2 monitor set up and working just fine but then recently I decided to add another but the problem is 2 monitors are working but the 3rd one is blank but recognized. Did you fix yours? If so can you help me?

[@teru1]

How did you get all 3 to work for me when I plug in a 3 one the 2 one losses signal ?

[@FroGgy15736]

Probably the gpu can’t handle all 3 monitors?

Is there any way to turn off the monitor #1 and #2 and leave only monitor #3 on?

[@FroGgy15736]

Right click on the desktop and go to NVIDIA control panel. From there go to the multiple displays tab and check off the monitors you want to use and don’t want to use.

[@HelpButtonIsBesideMe]

Is it possible to run a "splitter" or some other sort of adapter from the single HDMI port on my 1650 to 3 monitors? 🥺

[@HelpButtonIsBesideMe]

And no, the motherboard doesn't have integrated graphics either 😒

[@newbleppmore7855]

i wonder if this is worth it now that these kinds of monitors are dirt cheap

[@SWAGgrass]

Hey man, I have a PC running Intel hd graphics 530 the gc says that it can support up to 3 monitors so I have 1 plugged into the vga, one into the hdmi, and one into the devi. However it wont let me run more than 2 at a time. they all work in some sort of combination but every time I try to enable the third one it disconnects another one.

[@sakumzingogela7451]

Try to connect the 3rd monitor with USB adaptor

[@brittnig7584]

Same issue here.

[@SWAGgrass]

@@brittnig7584 Hi I figured it out, even though it says it can support it it has to be in some sort of combination between the graphics card outputs and the motherboard outputs. You cant use more than 2 motherboard outputs at the same time it cant handle that. Once you do set everything up properly make sure you go into the bios and enable multi display. IF you are unable to set it up like that There is a usb to hdmi dongle you can buy. Make sure that it supports extend/extension screen instead of just mirroring because then it wont be a extra display just a duplicate of whatever another monitor is showing. I was able to find one on amazon that was a usb hub and a active hdmi out that allowed for extension.

[@brittnig7584]

@@SWAGgrass Thank you! I will look for the hub on amazon.

[@RvO73]

I have a problem, my bf bought a second monitor and he did everything you said to set it up yet if he opens a game up on his main monitor and lets say KZbin on the second monitor. If he than clicks on something on the second monitor the main one wil go right away back to the home screen.. how do we fix this?

[@Knovocaine]

Change the video setting in the game to borderless windowed

[@FroGgy15736]

Yea the game settings are probably set to fullscreen. If you change it to borderless or windowed it will stay there even though you click on something on the other monitor.

[@baldmar5083]

When you first turn on the PC, you only had two displays active. Then, your video cut to when you had all three going. I just hooked up triple monitors, and no matter what I do in display settings or NVIDIA settings, I can only ever get two display to show at once. I am unable to “check” all three displays….

[@FroGgy15736]

Probably because the gpu can’t handle 3 monitors?

[@baldmar5083]

@@FroGgy15736 definitely not the GPU. The issue was with the monitors, did a factory reset and they now work fine.
