Recommended Hardware for DISPLAX Tile

To ensure stable performance, accurate touch detection, and reliable videowall operation, DISPLAX recommends using hardware that meets the specifications below when integrating DISPLAX Tile systems.

ComponentRecommendationWhy It Matters
Operating SystemWindows 10 Pro or newerRequired for videowall and multi-display stability
CPUIntel Core i7 or higherEnsures smooth multi-touch and video processing
Storage500 GB SSD (minimum)Fast boot, reliable application loading
Memory16 GB DDR4 RAMRequired for large-resolution videowalls
GPUVideowall-capable graphics cardCritical for synchronized multi-display output

⚠️ Windows Home editions are not recommended for professional videowall installations.

Graphics and Videowall Processing

The selected GPU must match the videowall size, resolution, and application complexity.

✔️ Tested / Example Graphics Hardware

  • MATROX D1480

  • NVIDIA A2000

  • NVIDIA A4000

💡 This is only an example. Other GPUs may work depending on system design.

Important GPU Selection Notes

  • The GPU must support:

    • Videowall configurations

    • High-resolution outputs

    • Synchronized multi-display rendering

  • If GPU complexity becomes high, consider using a dedicated videowall processor instead of relying solely on the graphics card.

Using a videowall processor significantly reduces GPU load and improves stability.

Supported Examples

  • Matrox QuadHead2Go

  • Datapath FX4

These devices:

  • Simplify videowall configuration

  • Improve signal stability

  • Reduce GPU processing overhead

USB Expansion and Connectivity

  • Prefer USB expansion cards or ports over long USB cables

  • Ensures stable power delivery and data integrity

USB Extenders (Only If Necessary)

  • Use active USB extenders only

  • Avoid passive extenders

  • Test thoroughly before final installation
