Title: GA-F2A88XN-WIFI (rev. 3.0) tripple display
Post by: Orac on January 06, 2014, 12:53:20 am

GA-F2A88XN-WIFI (rev. 3.0)
A8 6500T 45w
2 x 4gb 1600 MHz ram
3 x Dell UltraSharp U2312HM
Monitors connected as follows using onboard gpu ports only


1 hdmi to dvi cable
1 hdmi to dvi cable
1 dvi to dvi cable

The dells have 1 dp , 1 dvi & 1 vga only, no hdmi.

I seem to be able to only have any 2 of these 3 working at the same time.
Windows 8.1 pro will turn off 1 whatever combination I use.
Also tried a spare hdmi monitor, but still would turn 1 monitor off whatever combination I hooked up.

Is this normal behaviour with the 6500t 45w or the motherboard?

there's no mention of triple monitor support for your board on their website

Correct, they don't say it does or not. Same, even the in the boards manual.
Is it just me or are is their website & manuals a bit vague sometimes.
Was just hoping that someone has some experience with this board.

Long time since last post!
Updated cpu to a a8 7600.
Now can run 3 monitors together in extended desktop.
New problem.
Monitors will not wake from sleep even though the pc does. Requires a reboot to get the displays back.
If I connect 1 monitor only (completely disconnect the others) the remaining monitor wakes.
If I connect 2 or 3 none of the monitors wake.
Bios is F4.
W8.1 x64 pro.
Tried different drivers, no change.
Anyone come across this?

I have the A85X model.... I don't think you can work with 3 monitor togheter because you don't have one display port.... That you need for make working more than 2 display... on the site they write support multimonitor... it doesn't means 3 monitor... Sorry... same issue of me....

Please let me know: I have GA-F2A88XN-WIFI (rev. 3.0) and A10-7800 (Kaveri as yours)... I want to use 3 monitors to extend display...
I ask to Gigabyte and didn't answer... AMD support don't know...
Is it possible with my configuration to use 3 display? I have to order the monitors and if you garantee to me that works with 3 then I will buy 3. Many thanks...
