GTX TITAN: How to hook up 3D vision surround? PLEASE HELP
I recently purchased a single GTX Titan to replace my two aging Gtx 480's. My problem is that I am using 3 Asus 3D monitor's that only support 3D over DVI. Worked fine with the two GTX 480's, and I this was one of the reason's I bought the titan. The Titan is supposed to support 3D vision + 1 on a single card, but I've been told 3D doesn't work over HDMI, and I've never used display port, and someone is telling me I need to buy an adapter (which cost's $100)???
So my question is how do I hook my 3D Vision Surround up?
If I do need an adapter, are there any cheaper one's that will work with 3D Vision Surround that nVidia recommends?
Thanks for your help

They had a "how to" for the 6XX cards, maybe that will help.

I might be incorrect but as far as I know you can only support 2 monitors using a single graphics chip. This is why the 690 using internal SLI is the only 600 series card that supports 3D surround.
Any card including the Titan supports surround when used in SLI.
Given the fact that you are a surround user you would probably have prefered a 690 or dual 680
at that price point. I assume that dual Titan is out of the question.
I have seen no claims that the titan supports three monitors in 3D.
I hope you find a reasonable solution.

Thanks to everybody using my assembler it warms my heart.

@Flugan
The obvious advantage of a Titan would be using it in games that do not support SLI. There are currently 21 samples on the Passmark Software website. If they are a true indication, the Titan blows the 690 out of the water.

The fact that a single 680 would support surround was a huge part of their marketing hype at launch.
Qoute from the guide I linked.
"With the launch of the GeForce GTX 680 it is now possible to run an entire Surround setup on just the one graphics card. In this guide, we’ll show how to correctly configure 2D Surround and 3D Vision Surround systems using all available ports and connectors, and combinations of video cards, be that one card, two cards in 2-Way SLI, or three cards in 3-Way SLI."
There is also a video on youtube where Linus Tech Tips puts the Titan up against 2 GTX 660tis SLId for 3D gaming. The 660tis and Titan were very close, so for the money the 660tis seem to win. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ix-2xPTSXm4&list=UUXuqSBlHAE6Xw-yeJA0Tunw&index=10

I stand corrected, unless you have Benq 2420 monitors which has DP connectors themselves you need the adapter to get a dual DVI from your DP port.
There are a number of bizlink adapters floating on ebay and the nvidia store link is sold out.
My previous post was written under the assumption that surround required SLI in one form.
I stand corrected.
If you don't have the requisite adapters, why not plug in one of your older 480s, and use it as the extra monitor output, as well as a PhysX card?
Edit: Won't work.

Will this really work? I have a similar situation.

In short yes it works on 1 titan.
2 monitors to DL-DVI
1 monitor to DP via active DVI-DP converter.
Hope it answers your questions.

it's 3 DVI (actually Dual DVI) or 3 Displayport connectors...??
