So I know that the card is capable of making it work, but why does it not always work? Literally any responses would be wonderful. I can occasionally get it to work, but only if I redownload the amd firepro software, restart the computer, and unplug and replug the monitors (Not always in that order).
If I extend to the second monitor it works, I'll see this:Īnd when I click the other ones to extend, I see this.
On mine, if I restart my computer the 3 other screen will go black and windows will recognize them but not display on them. I will say that mine is the only one that has different monitors (2 Acer, 2 Asus, but they are the same size and resolution). We all have the same HDMI to mini DP cables. The AMD firepro W4100 works perfectly on every other computer on a 4 monitor set up. We all have the same computer and the majority of us have 4 monitor setups. I'm just really curious what might be the best solution for this in your opinion.I have a Windows 10 computer in the office I work. I would only consider this if there's really no other solution.Įven if that was obvious, I'm only really considering used graphics cards, so if someone has any experience with older hardware and knows that it will work, this is probably what I'm looking for. The graphics card should not use an active DP adapter, since this is going to raise the cost. The graphics card should be able to drive a 4K display at 60hz, presumably through Displayport since I don't think there are any cheap cards with HDMI 2.0 support. Now, I only got three more things to add: I would prefer my switch to Linux to only cost around 60-70€ max, but I guess after doing some research I'm now just interested in what the cheapest graphics card with support for 4 monitors would be, regardless of the price. My problem really is that I don't want to spend too much money on a graphics card that will only be used for non-graphic-intensive tasks.
Theoretically, this should be no problem, since most modern GPUs should be able to do this. until I realized that I am currently using 4 monitors simultaneously on my (would-then-be-passed-through-to-windows) graphics card and that I would need a graphics card that supports this number of simultaneous outputs for Linux.
Theoretically, I've sorted it all out and I was really interested in finally doing it. So I've been thinking to about finally doing a full-time switch to linux on my main rig (primarily used for gaming and content consumption) using the GPU-passthrough method to a virtual Windows installation described in a video a few months ago.
