Connecting a Single 5K Monitor - GeForce 600 and 700 Series

 

Since these cards have only one DisplayPort connector, a 5K monitor requires at least two supported GeForce cards, with SLI mode enabled.

Connect the 5K monitor DP1 to the master SLI GPU, and 5K monitor DP2 to the GeForce cards indicated in the table below.
