You could use 2 display ports or uncap the dvi, think they cap the dvi so you know its port 2 on the card and expect you to plug your monitor into port 1 which is likely a Dual-Link DVI port rather than a Single-Link DVI port. When using one of the display port outputs you will need an active DP to DVI adaptor. |
