So here's my dilemma: I want to use 3 displays, one is a 1080p TV and two are 27" monitors with 2560 x 1440 resolutions. These won't work with HD 4000 graphics connected to the DVI port, because it is limited to 1920 x 1200 (my motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-Z77MX-D3H). That means I have to hook up the TV to the HD 4000, and since I have to set the HD 4000 as the primary display in BIOS, when I boot I would have to turn on the TV to see the bios screen and bootloader (I use Mountain Lion and Windows 7). Thing is, I only use my TV once every evening, so this is not a perfect setup. I want to have the external graphics (Nvidia GTX 570) set as primary display in bios, so I don't have to turn on the TV every time I want to switch OS or go to bios.
Problem is, for the HD 4000 to work in Mountain Lion, you have to set it as primary graphics. Any way around this?
