Hi Kiuribrosai,

Did not test that, but i am quite sure that won’t work.
You will need an adapter cable that has it internal chip running at minimum 240MHz,
or in other words an “active” adapter/cable. Unfortuantely we do not have such an adapter in our assortment 🙁
However that should not be all that hard to find online it would think

Hi Laim,

Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Which version nr. of that Intel Graphics Control Center do you have it running on ?

Hi cuethenoise,
If i am not mistaking we have had contact over support email and you have it working now right ?

Hi Kuribrosai,
I think you will need to have HDMI1.4b support on the Laptop output to be bale to run 1080p in 120Hz. So you need to check with Lenovo on that one … If it does support it, you should be able to use a HDMI to DVI adapter with 120Hz/3D support to connect the screen

Hi Lavx,
The cards are limited to a max of 6 screens. The MST Hub will not change that.
And yes you place a second card and again connect 6 screens to that one, they don’t have to run in crossfire for that.

Hi Jerry,
Sorry for the delay, email replied and firmware link send to your email …

Hi Denovo,
Yes the specs on the website for the MST Hubs are correct.
Hub seems operational, screens are working, cables are good …
Does the laptop (or windows) see the second monitor at all ?
I posted a question on Lenovo website to check if the Laptop support MST and if the GPU can actually drive   2 x 1600P external screens (i saw it has HD4400 “only” so i thought it would be worth to check that)

Hi Careers,
We have no confirmation on that yet.
I know that he chip inside supports it, so hardware wise i don’t see a reason why it would not be able to work. But let us wait until the technical guy’s from the factory confirm that …

Hi Rippedgeek,

Amazon will receive stock again last week of March, so still a few weeks to go but i can see “light at the end of tunnel”.

Good day Kikkeraap,

Yes it does, the DVI output on the CSV-3242HD is DVI-I and capable of outputting bith digital and analog signal. So you can connect a VGA monitor to the DVI output using a DVI-to-VGA adapter.

Hi Vinnie,
No need for additional software to read the Temps, just open Crimson Software, click on “games”, then “general settings”, then “general Overdrive” and than you have speeds and temp of your card.
Please send a picture of the backside of your card, there should be stickers on it with item-code, serial nr. and prodcution nr., will need those to determine which bios version suits your card.
Please email to [email protected]

Hi Vinnie,

Did you check on the temperature of the card ?

Hi Vertullo,

Here’s my standard checklist (not all points will be applicable for you) …

* Color Depth (often default set to 16 bits or even 32 bits) need to be set to 8 bits (when running 4:4:4) or 12Bit when running in 4:2:2. I am quite sure the adapter does not support higher color depth than 12bit.

* Make sure the HDMI port your using on the TV is HDMI 2.0 capable or 3840x2160p 60HZ capable. Often TV’s have like 4 HDMI ports, but only 1 is suited for “2.0” standard.

* Make sure the HDMI cable you are using can do HDMI2.0 or 18Gbps.

* On many TV’s you need to turn on “UHD Color” manually in the settings of your TV for the HDMI port to which your pc is connected.

* Also it could help when connecting 2 screens, to set the screen connected thru the Adapter as second/secondary screen

* When choosing a custom resolution please select for Timing Standard “CVT-RB” (reduced blanking)

I do have some end-user feedback that needed to make custom resolutions with ResSwitchX for instance …

Verified Purchase

I’m using this to successfully send a 3840×2160 60hz signal via my late 2013 Mac Pro with dual AMD Firepro D500 video cards. The normal display settings would not allow me to select 60hz as a refresh rate, but after I installed SwitchResX and created a 4k monitor profile with a 60hz vertical frequency, I was able to simply select the new settings and it works fine. It’s a more involved process using El Capitan to set up a custom profile, but it can be done if you look up some of the other reviews here or on SwitchResX’s website.

Hope it helps

Hi LavX,
Almost all cards, from lets say R7 370 and upwards can support 6 screens when using an MST Hub.
To make Eyefinity feature work, you will need to use the DP output on the card and when using Screens that have no DP input you will need to use active adapters for every screen after the third. An MST Hub is an active device so that would mean you can use “normal” cables to connect screens to the MST HUB.
Now if the GPU will be powerful enough to display your application(s) will depend on the application, the resolution/frequency of the screens as well as your own acceptance level.
I would not advice to connect 6 screens 1080P 60Hz to a R7 370 level card when you plan to run independent high resolution video’s on all screens. For that i would advice you to go at least for an R9 380X or even an R9 390(X) that has double the pixel rate of that of a R9 380X.
