Dual Monitor Feature
This motherboard supports dual monitor feature. With the internal VGA output
support (DVI-D, D-Sub and DisplayPort), you can easily enjoy the benefits of dual
monitor feature without installing any add-on VGA cards to this motherboard. This
motherboard also provides independent display controllers for DVI-D, D-Sub and
DisplayPort to support dual VGA output so that DVI-D, D-Sub and DisplayPort can
drive the same or different display contents.
To enable dual monitor, please follow the steps below:
1. Connect a DVI-D monitor cable to the DVI-D port on the I/O panel, connect a
D-Sub monitor cable to the D-Sub port on the I/O panel or connect a DisplayPort
monitor cable to the DisplayPort port on the I/O panel.
