It's not really an issue, but I have got a second monitor and was understanding that I had a few HDMI ports, but turns out I do not, I only have two, One is on the motherboard another is via the graphics card.

Is there a solution for this, that won't cost an arm and a leg.

A HDMI to Display Port cable plugged into the back of the GPU should do the job. I've been using one for my secondary monitor for a while now. You can pick these up from PCS via their upgrade system, or I'm sure Amazon has a tonne of them

so what monitors do you have and what connections do you have on the 6700xt
Turns out the second monitor I got does not work so returning it and getting a different one, so open to suggestions.

The current monitor I have right now is

AOC Gaming C24G1​


This is a HDMI connection

I'd look into 1440p 144hz monitors for a 6700XT, it's a massive step up from 1080p which realistically is rather undemanding for that level of card the below should all be solid options

AOC CQ27G2U I own one and like it a lot

Samsung G5 Well recommended by members of the forum

ASUS TUF VG27AQ1A Fantastic value IPS monitor
