With GeForce cards that have two DisplayPort connectors, at least two cards are needed to support more than one 5K monitor.
Select your application:
Connection Rules
Connect DP1 and DP2 from each 5K monitor to two DisplayPort connectors on each GeForce card. Do not connect DP1 to one GeForce card and DP2 to another GeForce card.
If the GeForce card has more than two DisplayPort connectors, then you can connect the 5K monitor to any two DisplayPort connectors on the card.
DP1 and DP2 from each 5K monitor must be connected to the same connector positions on each GeForce card.
For example:
DP1 is connected to connector 1 and DP2 is connected to connector 2 on the master SLI GPU.
The same connections must be made for the remaining SLI GPUs.

Notes |
Two GeForce Cards |
Supports a maximum of two 5K monitors. Connect each monitor to any two ports on the same GPU. Clone Mode To configure with a non-5K monitor in clone mode, connect the second display to the same GPU as the 5K monitor. Extended Mode You can configure both 5K monitors in extended mode. To configure with a non-5K monitor in extended mode, connect the second display to any GPU. |
Three GeForce Cards |
Supports a maximum of three 5K monitors. Connect each monitor to any two ports on the same GPU. Clone Mode To configure with a non-5K monitor in clone mode, connect the second display to the same GPU as the 5K monitor. Extended Mode You can configure two 5K monitors in extended mode. To configure with a non-5K monitor in extended mode, connect the second display to any GPU. |
Four GeForce Cards |
Supports a maximum of four 5K monitors. Connect each monitor to any two ports on the same GPU. Clone Mode To configure with a non-5K monitor in clone mode, connect the second display to the same GPU as the 5K monitor. Extended Mode You can configure two 5K monitors in extended mode. To configure with a non-5K monitor in extended mode, connect the second display to any GPU. |
