the computer itself is on my rack, which is on the other side of the wall. i ended up drilling a hole through the wall and running 20m long USB and DisplayPort cables through it, then there’s a DisplayPort MST hub which splits it up to drive the three separate monitors and a whole bunch of USB hubs for all the peripherals. adds a bit of complexity, but it’s worth it because the fans are so damn loud, and it’s also more fun :3

he is under construction and also a very good boy :3
so, one DP feed from the pc feeds the DP hub that feeds the multiple screens ???
yup! it’s called DisplayPort MST (Multi-Stream Transport), it’s the reason DP hubs exist and the same tech used in high-end DP monitors which support daisy-chaining
