A little advice please!

I have a graphics card with 3x DP and 1x HDMI outputs. At the moment i have my triple screens for the sim rig connected to the 3x DPs and my other standalone monitor to the HDMI. I also want to attach my WMR headset.

I need my standalone monitor to be on when I use my VR headset, so I think the only way I can do this will be to get a DP to HDMi adaptor for the headset and a DP 2 way splitter for one of the triples and the headset. (As the triples won't be used when I use the VR headset)

Do I have any other options?
 
Not sure a splitter would be much good in this instance, they just create a duplicate signal not an extra individual output from your graphics card.

You could get a switch to easily switch the hdmi or display port between cables but would be essentially the same as just manually switching the cables between your headset and one of the display port monitor.
