    3 Monitors AMD Eyefinity not working w/ DisplayPort!

    Well I got an adapter today it doesn't work. I got an active DVI to Mini DP adapter. The third monitor (That is plugged in via a non active hdmi to dp cable) is still "Disconnected". However I can make an eyefinity group now that is awful because it's rendering a screen that I can't use.

    3 Monitors AMD Eyefinity not working w/ DisplayPort!

    They are all 1080p monitors so 5760x1080p. My two cards could't handle that well except in older titles so it's not a huge deal if I can't get it to work in games. Is this the type of product you are talking about? http://www.amazon.com/Cirago-DisplayPort-Active-Adapter-DPA2011/dp/B005AT2KTK...

    3 Monitors AMD Eyefinity not working w/ DisplayPort!

    Here are my concerns from what I've learned all summed up. I have 3 monitors I want to use in eyefinity crossfire. Two of the monitors use HDMI and the third uses DVI. I have them connected via an HDMI to HDMI, HDMI to Display Port, and DVI to DVI. I found out the HDMI to display port does not...

    My concern is that although I'll have two display ports in use and 1 HDMI, one of the display ports won't be an active adapter. It will just go from HDMI to DP.

    Sorry to be so needy, but I want to make sure this is right. One monitor has a DVI connection that I will use a DVI to DVI cord and plug in the end of the DVI cord into the active adapter to turn it into a display port monitor. The second monitor will go HDMI to HDMI. The third monitor will...

    3 Monitors AMD Eyefinity not working w/ DisplayPort!

    No I guess I didn't quite explain myself. If I disable crossfire and plug in the third monitor to the second graphics card I can use all three monitors at once. However, I can't use eyefinity technology. So for my third monitor I need an active hdmi to display port? Instead of a regular hdmi...

    3 Monitors AMD Eyefinity not working w/ DisplayPort!

    I'm still not quite following you guys. Although my cards' name is a 7870 they are based on the 7900 tahiti cores- if that makes any difference. Is there a way to use eyefinity with two graphics cards and three displays? @master_shake that 7970's IO is exactly the same as my two 7870 Mysts.
