So, I have just upgraded from an R9 290 to a 980Ti and am struggling somewhat to get it to work in a four screen multi monitor setup in Windows 10.
I have a desktop monitor which is used standalone, and then three matching TV's which are used in a triple screen setup for a sim racing rig. All four are not all used together, so I will either be running the desktop monitor on its own, or the triples without the desktop monitor. This is a straightforward setup in the Catalyst drivers and I could save both these setups as pre-sets and switch between them easily, but I just can't seem to do the same using Nvidia surround.
Setting up the surround group is trial and error as none of the screen idents seem to actually match their position, but once done I can switch between the surround group and my monitor using 'windows key+P' easily enough. The problem is that about 50% of the time one of the three screens will drop off the group and remain blank. Having played around with swapping around the video ports and dongles (the TV's have HDMI so two of them require a DP to HDMI dongle) it is always the same port on the video card that is lost in the surround group.
Any idea how to sort this out? Does it sound like I have an intermittent displayport socket failure on my 980Ti? Or could this be a driver issue or Windows 10 issue?
Any help is much appreciated! The 980Ti seems like a good performance boost from my R9 290, but I can't use it at the moment as it keeps falling over in surround.
