There are successful builds with only the onboard HD 4600, for example Ryan's build. Is there any reason why a hackintosh couldn't drive 3 (or least 2) monitors given both (A) appropriate integrated GPU and (B) MB's video outputs? Also, how well does daisy-chaining two DP monitors work with a mackintosh?

So, has anybody managed (or failed) to get 3 (or even 2) monitors on any integrated/onboard GPU?

- Intel KB tells that this is possible at least on Windows.
- List of iGPUs from Apple.
- Wikipedia on Intel's HD and Iris graphics with regard to multiple monitors.
 
I had 3 going last night on a fresh new build.

Gigabyte z97n wifi
i3 4370 hd 4600
Mavericks 10.9.5

Haven't tested much other then they were all on at once. I'll let ya know more tonight when I get a chance to mess around with it. But it should work.
 
Kevin, that's great news! Seems like most builds would do without an additional GPU. :) Do report any further testing.
