Hi guys, I have a question about source signals with these monitors. I am underway with building my graphics pc and I have a Mac Pro. I want to have the ability to use both systems with these monitor, but be able to choose which signal will be displayed on each monitor. The monitors have Display Port 1.2 and HDMI inputs, the Mac has mini display port outputs, the pc has display port. Lets say I connect the monitors this way:
Mac -> MOnitor - Mini Display Port -> HDMI (with a converter cable)
PC -> MOnitor - Display Port -> Display Port
So now once I change sources I will be able to manage which signal is on the screen. Now lets say Im gaming on three screens using all signals from PC ( source DP) and then I decide I want to play just on the middle one, and use the left and right to browse on the internet. So now from left to right:
Left monitor (HDMI - Mac)
Center monitor (DP - PC)
Right monitor (HDMI -Mac)
Now my question is will the PC see that the left and right monitors are connected to the computer? Will my cursor be able to go out of the middle screen to the right or left one? And will the mac see only two displays connected and moving the cursor from the left screen to the right one will go past the middle display?
