Hello, Im tearing my hair out on whether this will work or not, Everything i look at and all the calculations say it will.
This is for NOC monitoring

Would you guys be able to offer some input?

Hi RougeR,

Using the Nvidia NVS510 will provide you with 4x Displayport outputs all of which use the 1.2 standard which has support for MST hubs, with this you may use either 2x 4 output or 2x 3 output MST hubs.
This will allow you to output to 8 displays in extended monitor modes.

The mix of resolutions should be no problem and the rotated 21:9 monitor again should not be a problem when setup in extended display mode.

EDIT: Just finished reviewing the monitors, cabling and MST hub you planning to use in more detail, what you have penned down here looks good and should work just fine

So there shouldn't be any driver issues etc, ive heard of people getting stuck at 6 monitors, with any more not being recognized. Im on the verge of just going for the simpler option and throwing in 2x NVS510 into an old PC.

Thanks for your time

Single NVS 510 seems to only support 4 simultaneous monitors like most (all?) current Nvidia GPU chips.
They only advertise that you can run 8 monitors with two of them in the same computer.
You cannot get over this limit with MST hubs and its separate from amount of physical connectors.

Same with AMD side, the chips only support maximum of 6 simultaneous monitors, even with MST hubs.
