Serkan Dizici Posted November 16, 2023 Report Share Posted November 16, 2023 Hello, I am using Watchout version 6.7.2, and I have a computer with a graphics card that has 6 outputs. However, since it's a bit outdated, I built a new computer and installed 2 RTX 4090 graphics cards, each with 4 outputs. When I open a display from the computer with 2 RTX 4090 cards, I can only get images from 3 of the outputs, and I can't get images from the other 3 outputs. What could be the reason for this, in your opinion? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator jfk Posted November 16, 2023 Moderator Report Share Posted November 16, 2023 WATCHOUT 6 (and earlier versions as well) only support output from a single graphics card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serkan Dizici Posted November 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2023 In this case, do you have a solution suggestion for me? Do you think using a riser card to combine two graphics cards would work? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think using a riser card to combine two graphics cards would work? No, i do not think that will work. Is the goal six outputs? if so, with WATCHOUT 6 and earlier the only straightforward choices are AMD six output cards. How soon do you need this up and running for serious use? WATCHOUT 7 uses modern methods to utilize the graphics subsystem. While Dataton is not testing with multiple GPU cards, and make no claims on the topic, technically it should not be a problem. But 7 is still a ways off for some uses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serkan Dizici Posted November 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Thank you for your responses. Yes, my goal is to have six outputs. I couldn't find a newly produced 6-output card for AMD. That's why I want to solve the issue by using two graphics cards, splitting the 6 outputs between 2 Watchout player PCs, with 3 outputs each. Do you think this would be a reasonable move? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think this would be a reasonable move? Yes, with qualifications. Connecting directly to projectors? Yes. Connecting directly to flat panel displays with frames. Yes. Connecting to LED processors, vision mixers, or any type of processor? Needs gpu manufacturers synch hardware added. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
