How to Easily Connect Up to 8 Monitors to a Windows Computer

One extra screen is nice, two is better, but eight? Is that even possible? We'll show you how to use relatively inexpensive video adapters to connect eight extra monitors to your Windows computer—each operating in extended mode. And if eight monitors feels like a few too many, the same process works for adding seven or fewer.

Nice! This would work for what I need it for. Nothing high streaming, just charts.

I purchased 2 of your UGA -HDMI -2S units. currently running 5 outputs ( 5 if you include the laptop. ) These are used in commercial applications along with software I coded especially for multiscreen displays.
Your hardware is nothing less than cutting-edge! - and your support team are really switched-on and knew EXACTLY the correct configuration I needed. In my humble opinion? - you are the ONLY company to go to for hardware of this type. I've been running your hardware for the past 5 months in-store and they are solid as a rock. - thanks guys. ;)

When I've tried adding 2 monitors to my laptop, the first works ok using the HDMI port; the second I have going thru a USB-HDMI splitter. One performance problem I've seen in that using it (esp with HDMI(native) + 2 HDMI on the splitter) is it kicks off something called 'Windows Driver Foundation User-mode Driver Framework Host Process. That process is kind of a hog, and messes with other processes. For example, using HDMI + 2 HDMI on the splitter makes audio and midi unusable due to interruptions. QUESTION: Is Windows Driver Foundation a factor with the Plugable devices? Is there a performance hit or process interruptions?

Whoa, and here I was going to get another expensive graphics card for my desktop as I have 3 monitors already in a Portrait/Landscape/Portrait config, but wanted one more above my landscape. Thx for the video!

Where do you buy the desk and mounting equipment you used in this video? What are all the monitors shown in the video and dimensions, and where did you get them from?

Cool. Looking to hook up some monitors for Halloween this year in the yard. Not sure how many yet or what kind of content, probably mp4 videos..so performance could become an issue. Anyways this gets me going on a way to implement. Yay!

Wow, the days of installing multiple GPU's on a desktop PC seems to be behind us. Maybe for a long time now, but i have only discovered these methods lately which is awesome.

Excellent demonstration. I have a need that I would appreciate if you could help with. How could I connect 2 notebooks and 1 console to a set of 2 extended monitors.

Hi,
I have a problem running the application in full screen on both monitors as one. I need something similar to Collage mode Intel or Nvidia Mosaic but my laptop drivers don't support that mode. Any suggestion
Thank you

[chadrackkaja]

[mbam-jihm]

Hi there great video by the way and im planning to make a purchase on one of your products but which plugable should i use since im planning to set up 4 monitor in one pc and i have a gtx 1650 gpu

Hi there, interesting solution you used to connect the 8 monitors. Just wondering to know if I can use your solution to connect 8 56" Smart TVs via HDMI with a single computer and use them as extended display all over. Actually, I'm looking for a powerfull computer wirh a GPU cards that allows me to do what I want. Any recommendation? perhaps more video cards are needed or with your solution I can setup this configuration. Any advice will be appreciated.

[divatech]

Wow, super impressed. This is exactly what I have been needing. I have a usb-c hub (it has 3 hdmi ports) which is supprting 3 external monitors, plus the internal monitor of my laptop. I just need to add one more to have 4 external monitors, plus the laptop screen. the three external montiors are using HDMI. Can I use one of your adapters to add one more monitor?

I was reading some reviews on amazon and why are some buyers saying that after downloading a driver the device then starts to record your screen? I find that unlikely but that is what is

[AnnkurKumar]

How did you do the connection. That's where many fumble or get confused. And that's not shown or explained.

[lRONMAIDEN]

What are the system requirements for this setup

[alex_pasco]

Where to buy these peripherals? Please kindly advise.
Also, if i have a desktop, with Video card w/multiple HDMI output, can it work and maximize monitors, say about 16 x 1080 display monitor. Planning to use this for our stage background. Thank You!
