Bored of Your Three Screen PC Setup? Well Now You Can Have Five, all From One GPU
Yep, you read that right folks. Thanks to the brainboxes over at club-3d, that display port on the back of your PC’s graphics card can now be used to drive three displays instead of one, thanks to a handy adapter.
And the best news? It even supports games. I know, I know, you probably won’t get great performance from a 5 screen gaming setup from one GPU, but it’s cool none the less.
So how does it work? Well, thanks to the newly released Club 3D MST hub you can use a single DisplayPort (found on most AMD / ATi Graphics cards) to drive three monitors, which is awesome if you are a PC power user, or perhaps use your PC for intensive tasks like 3D art. Before now if you wanted a set up with more than three displays, you needed a second GPU, which made things complicated and pricey.
