These graphics processors may not be as powerful as the discrete ATI/AMD and NVIDIA offerings, but they're low-power and there is no limit to how many can be connected to a single system (besides USB 2.0 bandwidth deficiencies). This is also running a fully open-source driver stack. AMD previously showcased a 24 monitor setup on Linux using their Eyefinity Technology, but that required four high-end ATI Radeon graphics cards and their proprietary driver stack in an unreleased form.
Your call guys
The video shows a bunch of “saving the earth from greenhouses gases” BS which caused me to kill the video in less then 10 seconds.
DisplayLink is cool.
It’s a technology demo, for cripesake, ignore the screen content!
...and the rest is history.
I’ve used DisplayLink USB to push a 4 display 2 discrete GPU PC to get 8 displays.
For no other reason than I had a store credit and they sold DisplayLink.
IT was a pretty cool way to watch NFL.
DisplayLink needs to better the pricing for their line up to use HDMI/DVI-D hookups for multiple 1080P and 1200P displays. The price point is too expensive still if building purpose made PCs/Servers/Kiosks for multi screen displays.
