How to use a big screen TV and/or multiple monitors with your computer on Windows 10.

#Windows10

This video will show how to setup multiple displays on Windows 10 and how to connect a television to your computer.

We will focus on the big screen TV, but the process is the same for standard computer monitors.

When using multiple screens with Windows 10, you will have the option to EXTEND the display, (which basically means treat it as a separate display); or DUPLICATE the display, (which basically means whatever you see on your main monitor will be duplicated on the second).

Before connecting another monitor or TV to your computer, you MUST ensure you have the proper cables.

Every video card is different! Some have HDMI outputs, some DVI, some DisplayPort, some Mini DisplayPort, etc...

And, every display is different! Some high end monitors only have DisplayPort inputs, though most computer monitors will have HDMI. Most televisions will also have HDMI inputs as well.

If your video card has HDMI out, and your TV/Monitor has HDMI in, then you will need a simple HDMI cable. (Make sure the cable is 60Hz or higher compatible)

However, if you have DisplayPort outs on your video card and HDMI inputs on your TV or monitors, you would need DisplayPort to HDMI cables, or an HDMI cable and HDMI-to-DisplayPort adapter. Again, pay attention to the compatible resolution (1080p, 4K, etc...) and refresh rate (60Hz or higher is usually what you want)

In the video we are using DP-to-HDMI cables for the monitors, and a long HDMI cable with a DP-to-HDMI adapter for the 4K TV. In case you need the same cables, we'll link them below:

You don't need these EXACT cables, but this is what we use.

Just pay attention to the port type you need, and buy the proper cables.
