When in doubt about the max specs of your GPU, contact the manufacturer. For this reason, MST hubs are better suited to add more outputs to a single output card, like laptop GPUs. Adding a 3-way MST hub to an Nvidia card with a 4 port maximum,means you will only be able to use one other port on the card. This means you are still limited to the maximum number of outputs your GPU supports. Each of the outputs will show as an individual discrete display on your computer. When using a MST hub, you can change a single output into three outputs. Your computer will see the extender as a single, larger output, in addition to the other outputs you have connected.
Since the max resolution per port of your card is well over 4K, you can extend a single port to four times HD on a Datapath or three times 720p on a Matrox (if its firmware supports that). These are extenders, so they take a larger image and then use their own hardware to divide it over its multiple outputs. When using a TripleHead or Datapath, you use up only one of your available ports.
This in turn translates to: don't worry about it.
Here is a list of options in order of preference: This document covers most starting situations and will help you choose the best solution for your situation.
We like to help you choose the right option. It's not an easy question to answer, because there is not a clearcut technical solution. People want to use Resolume with lots of outputs, and they're looking for the best option.
The number varies, but the gist is always the same.
In case anyone here wonders what's happening behind the scenes during the silent hours, here's what's been up when I'm not prepping for Server+ or for the switch to my new job:ĭatacentre Task List: - Server/Networking tasks: - clone over to the SAS SSDs - Windows Server 2016 tasks: - UNIX/POSIX attributes in AD - Artix Linux tasks: - Nextcloud feature integrations: - initiate integration of hMailServer into Nextcloud - initiate further Nextcloud integration(s) * - Docker container: NGINX Reverse Proxy Manager - configure HTTPS for upcoming container instances - Docker container: YouPHPTube - troubleshoot MariaDB access issue(s) - initiate Active Directory integration - Docker container: YaCy Grid - initiate web crawl - Install OpenZFS, move everything to ZFS volumes (long-term task) - macOS Mojave tasks: - Windows 10 Enterprise (Titan Xp) tasks: - buy/activate LTSC license - Windows 10 Enterprise (Titan V) tasks: - "Failed to register the device pciPassthru0 for 67:0.0 due to unavailable hardware or software support."Īnd that might not be everything I need to do, just major tasks."I want to run Resolume with eleventeen outputs! What computer do I need?"
