    How to limit a window in a certain monitor


    Hi, I'm using multiple monitors but with different size and resolution. So I need to limit a window in one monitor just like in macOS. Is there any way to allow me to move my cursor between those displays, while any window is not allowed to go across the border?

    :)

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds

  3. Setting a PC w/ multiple user accts. to use certain monitors

    I have a PC with windows 10 setup with 4 monitors and multiple user accounts, I would like to know if it is possible to set certain user accounts to use only a certain monitor or monitors?

    for example:

    • One user just plays games so when they log on it doesn't turn on all the monitors but only one (a 42" TV).
    • Another user, uses three monitors but has no need for the TV.

    Setting a PC w/ multiple user accts. to use certain monitors

    Hi James,

    We would like to know more about the issue, kindly clarify the following:

    • Are you trying to set up this other user account on only one monitor but with a different set of mouse and keyboard?
    • Are going to be using the same CPU on these four monitors?
    If the above questions are true, the setup that you currently have is not possible. You would be needing to use a third party software and external additional hardware to separate the keyboard and the mouse.

    You can read about KVM switch and setting up multiple users with

    KVM switch
    .

    For a thorough assistance regarding your concern, we suggest that you also post this concern through our Technet Forums, visit this

    Let us know if you need further help.

    Thank you.

    • They will be using the same mouse and keyboard on the same PC.
    • The only difference is when one user logs on it will use only 1 of the 4 monitors and when the other user logs on it will use 3 or all of the monitors what ever they choose
