What about the Asrock A780FullDisplayPort, does it support both DVI and HDMI via the 'FullDisplayPort'? Or what does that thing do anyway?

To answer my own question: NOT POSSIBLE.

I'm kinda giving up on this 780G. It seems so limited for my needs. If you need two displays it's a must for them te be one analog and one digital. No other way around.
Plus the fact that it heats up like crazy doesn't help either.

So, what are the alternatives? Nvidia 780i?

heats up? It's like, 5W!?

But yea, one must be analouge - you can't run two digital no matter what they are. Intel doesn't even offer a single digital with an external TDMS. No IGP supports two digital outputs, you'll have to buy a discrete card.

I keep reading complaints about the northbridge being extremely hot on this Gigabyte and also on other 780G MBs. Gigabyte added a new heatsink in the 1.1 revision, tho, let's see how it performs.

And BTW, it's also impossible to run 2 analogue outputs, since the DVI connection is DVI-D.

Doesn't the 690G support 2 digital outs at a time? ISTR it being one of the big selling points
