Theoretical Question....

I currently have a system that is using 4 x 1920 x 1080 displays driven by a Nvidia Gforce GTX1080

1. vMix main display (maximised as we need instant access to 24 inputs without scrolling or bank switching)*
2. Multiview Output
3. vMix audio mixer full screen (maximised)
4. Drives some 75 inch displays on the Set


Main output is using HD-SDI with Decklink Cards, NDI, SRT & RTMP and I have an additional HD-SDI display to monitor the main output of each system, prior to sending to our satellite, terrestrial and cable tv distribution uplinks.

I can do things like vMix social moderation, GT designer, and a host of proprietary API based applications on remote machines with their own displays
But there are some items that HAVE to run and display on the vMix platform itslef, and I don''t have any display space left, for example:-

vMixCall Panel / Chat
vMix Social Set Up
Local GT Designer


Ideally, I would like to add a second graphics card, not set up with anything fancy like Crossfire or SLI, maybe a pair of GTX 1070's so that I can get a total of 8 monitors if required. I do actually run my own PC with both a Gforce GTX1080 and a Quadro K2000, but I only runs a single 4K monitor, so never tried it.

Anybody think of a reason why this wouldn't work, especially with vMix. My alternative is to upgrade the display we use for the audio mixer to a 4K monitor, and put all the extra tools on that.

Thanks in advance
