Display Resolution

The G214 supports up to six single Displays via its DisplayPort connectors.
If more than one DisplayPort interface is used, the type of PCIe connection limits the

maximum resolution on each interface. 
The following table shows the maximum resolution on each DisplayPort using up to six

displays with the same resolution.
Note: Reducing the resolution or color depth on one DisplayPort can free resources to

increase the resolution or color depth on another DisplayPort.
