DP daisy-chaining aka MST (Multi Stream Transport) is supported in AMD Eyefinity, not Nvidia Surround. You need to use two outputs on the card to configure two monitors in Surround.

Hi, This is my first post on here so please be gentle!!... I am looking for a solution to my issue and I hope someone can help... My current setup is a Gigabyte Geforce GTX1080 extreme feeding dual Dell U3415W monitors using DisplayPort. The monitors are daisy chained and work fine as a regular desktop under Windows 10 x64. My problem comes from the Nvidia drivers, I understand that to utilise both screens as a single desktop in games you should use the surround configuration. Unfortunately the Surround option is greyed out and will not play. I have used the DDU utility to remove all of the drivers from the rig and I have reinstalled the Nvidia drivers, but this has not resolved the problem. My question is around the DisplayPort connectivity, is there a problem driving a daisy chained setup like this that prevents the Surround option from being used? Any tips or hints would be gratefully received. Cheers Andy |

Oh. I didn't know that. That is certainly annoying. |
