    Posted: 16 Feb 2014 at 12:52pm
Reading another thread led me to this question....

If I have have a Vanquish 4 am I able to run dual monitors? I currently have an older LG E2041T that is a really good unit, I'd hate to have to discard it, but I am also looking to upgrade to something around 30-32" with the new machine.

Will it be impractical to run dual monitors with the Vanquish 4?

You can definitely run dual-monitors! Just hook up the 2nd monitor to the other DVI or HDMI port on the back of the GTX 770.

What about the Vanquish 3, does the GTX 760 support dual monitors?

Funny that this thread comes around now because, as of this morning, I have a new 24" Viewsonic monitor and I'm going to hook up the above mentioned LG20" as soon as I can get down to get another DVI or DisplayPort cable. I was going to use the VGA cable the Viewsonic came with... until I realized the GTX770 has no VGA port... oh but look! .. the mobo has a VGA port!!.. (nope, not even gonna try that.)   

I'll let you know how the Vanquish II handles the Dual monitors this weekend...

I own a Vanquish II Level 3 and run dual "monitors"
I output DVI to an Acer 21" monitor and also HDMI to a 46" Vizio HDTV.

You can see the set up here on the forums: Forum Post

You can technically run up to four monitors off that single card.

Same with the GTX 760.

Hook a monitor up to the display port, one to the hdmi, and one to each of the DVI ports. Can't promise you won't take a performance hit at the point... but I can promise that if you're just adding 1080p monitors to it and it's not surround, you'll be fine up to 4 monitors.
