Connecting multiple external displays

Your Gaming Station may come with Display Port, HDMI, or DVI ports and allows you to connect 
multiple external displays.

Setting up multiple displays

When using multiple monitors, you are allowed to set display modes. You can use the additional 
monitor as a duplicate of your main display, or as an extension to enlarge your Windows desktop.

To set up multiple displays: 

1. 

Turn off your Gaming Station.

2. 

Connect the two monitors to your Gaming Station and connect the power cords to the 
monitors. Refer to Setting up your Gaming Station section in Chapter 1 for details on how to 
connect a monitor to your Gaming Station.

3. 

Turn on your Gaming Station. 

4. 

From the Start menu, click 

Settings 

System

 > 

Display

.

5. 

Configure the settings for your displays.

For some graphic cards, only the monitor that is set to be the primary display has display during 
POST. The dual display function works only under Windows.
