. I am getting the LG CX and the Decklink Mini 4k .I already own 2 x 4k PHILLIPS monitors

Now my workflow will be to use 3 monitors, thats almost obvious What I now is afraid of, is.
Can I use the Decklink to monitor ONE ( LG CX )of the monitors, and the same time output the 2 others from NVIDIA 2080ti card ?or I need another card for this setup ?

The 2080 will drive two Resolve GUI monitors, as long as it's set up properly in Resolve's Workspace drop-down.

You might want order a powered HDMI splitter -- do a forum search -- as most decklink users discover that the HDMI out won't drive the LG OLEDs. Some monitors work fine with this card, others need the splitter.

Yes. as my setup is today, and used for some time, I have 2x 43 inch Phillips monitors.
So you recoment that I should output all 3 monitors from the GPU, with a sliptter, instead? is that what you mean ?
Or to output the3 signal from Decklink to the spiltter, and then the LG CX, to add more "power" so to say ?
I read the arcticle https://www.richardlackey.com/low-budge ... t-lg-oled/
He recomened that setup, so I guess they tried it out. I know quite many have the LG C9 as an extra monitor . I guess I just have to take a chance on that but,,,,,,, quite an invastement failure, if it dont work !:)

No. Leave the two GUI monitors on the 2080. If you can't succeed in driving the LG program monitor off the Decklink HDMI, which is likely (reports of failure are common here), run the Decklink HDMI output to the splitter and from the splitter out to the LG.
