Need help getting my computer to recognise my third monitor
Hey guys, I decided to re purpose two of my old monitors lying around in the house in order to do my university coursework more efficiently (more places to drag windows and the like)
I'm using an nvidia GTX 460 2GB and have been able to get the second monitor working fine, however I have not been able to get the third one working. After searching around I think it's because I have the standard 460 that can only handle two displays at once. The question is if I have to get a second GPU does have to be the exact same one? Or can I use a cheap £30 PCI-E card?
A quick google search yielded a plethora of different answers ranging from "it's fine" to "it will literally explode your rig" so I thought I'd ask you guys, what do you think?
