I Require Setup Assistance
  1 / 2    
Hello forum, I recently bought two Asus 144Hz 3D capable monitors and I'm having difficulties setting them up with my laptop (Nvidia G770m GPU and i7-4*** CPU). If anyone can please assist me getting both up and running at 144Hz and 3D I will be very grateful. Thank you in advance! My laptop has these ports 4x USB 1x Display Port 1x HDMI 1x VGA My monitors have these ports 1x DVI 1x Display Port 1x HDMI

You must use 3 "matching" Displays for Nvidia 3D Vision surround. Nvidia does not support Dual Monitor gaming even in 2D. Athough in 2D Surround, you can use 3 mismatched monitors. This thread might give you insight if it's even possible with your laptop. Also 3D Vision only supports 120Hz. https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/571045/?comment=3883815

For 3D Vision to work on an external monitor when using a laptop, the video output connection must be routed directly from the Nvidia GPU. It is possible that none of your video outputs are off of the Nvidia GPU. [quote="helifax"]You need to be sure that you have a (mini) Display Port that is actually HOOKED with your nVidia GPU and not the Intel one. - In order to do this, on your laptop, go to nVidia Panel -> "Set PhysX Configuration" [url=http://www.iforce.co.nz/View.aspx?i=uqlnjqj1.1q2.jpg][img]http://iforce.co.nz/i/uqlnjqj1.1q2.jpg[/img][/url] - Here look under your nVidia GPU and Identity IF THE DISPLAY PORT IS [b]DIRECTLY[/b] hooked to it or not. In the above picture you can clearly see that the DP port is linked directly to the nVidia GPU and is not routed through the Intel Chipset (unlike the HDMI or the VGA that is linking directly to it). ======================================================================================================= Best Regards, [/quote]

Can you be more specific about the problems? Error message? Settings missing? OS? Driver version?

Also do you have the 3D vision Kit (basically emitter and glasses) or is the Laptop sold as having the emitter built in?

[quote="Pirateguybrush"]Can you be more specific about the problems? Error message? Settings missing? OS?

Understand that HDMI is not capable of broadcasting a 60hz+ signal, nor is VGA. I'm trying to find a work around to how I'm able to connect them all so I can use them to their fullest extent. The two Asus monitors will be the displays, whilst the actual laptop screen will be shut off. I need to have both monitors running and displaying at 144hz, and having one of those monitors display 3D. I hope this cleared it up.

You might be able to use 3DTV Play on the HDMI and use DP for 144hz g-sync.' I don't Believe you can run two 144hz with only one 144hz capable connector. You could use the DP monitor as both 144hz and 3D switching inbetween as HDMI is far from ideal for 3D. I also Believe you probably won't be able to run 3DTV Pllay without a built-in reciever. This leaves one monitor as HDMI 2D and 60hz without g-sync.

Thanks to everybody using my assembler it warms my heart.
To have a critical piece of code that everyone can enjoy!
What more can you ask for?

You wish. 144hz requires a dual link dvi cable. HDMI -> DVI is just single link and both have half the bandwith disallowing you to use HDMI port with 144hz. As far as I know you need DP or dual link DVI.

Unfortunately, Nvidia doesn't support Daisy chaining. You might be able to use a MST Hub, like one of Club 3D's SenseVision products released a few months back. This would solve the 2 144hz monitor problem, but probably wouldn't work with 3D Vision. If your DVI output is Dual Link, use it with a Dual Link cable.

No, DP has the bandwith of dual-link DVI but halving it brings it closer to single link meaning no 144hz at all. I'm guessing a new computer is needed. Or you will have to make a significant tradeoff.
