That should all work fine, although you wont be looking at amazing fps on a single 6850 at that res (all depending on what you're playing of course)

these what you are going for? with that adaptor it should all work fine. I can max games like black ops and many more console ports on 3 screens and get over 30fps still. I presume you mean a 6950? if so unlock the extra shaders and overclock it and it will run like a dream

yes sorry meant 6950 to be flashed to 6970(edited 1st post)

and they are all ordered and will be here today, the monitors are from somewhere else though as ocuk dont stock the ones ive ordered

Should be able to run Monitor 2 off dvi as well as the card has 2 so:

Monitor 1 DVI - DVI
Monitor 2 DVI - DVI
Monitor 3 Mini DP adaptor - DVI

yes it will work, i have mine set up the same way

danman2k · 5 Apr 2011 at 11:58

right ive got everything and cant get it working

Its not to do with the monitor been dvi-i and the adaptor dvi-d is it

edit all monitors are dvi-d

stumped atm

old gamer · 5 Apr 2011 at 12:39

whats happend when you plugged them all in and turned it on

danman2k · 5 Apr 2011 at 12:40

right the hdmi monitor is on
the dvi monitor is on
but the connected via the active mini DP - dvi will not come at all

old gamer · 5 Apr 2011 at 12:45

may sound silly but recheck the mini dp connections to make sure theres good contact i had the same and the monitor conection was loose

old gamer · 5 Apr 2011 at 12:50

just had a thought go into ccc, descktop management and click detect displays

danman2k · 5 Apr 2011 at 12:51

all connections are good does it matter hich mini DP i use on the back of the card

wouldnt hurt to try the other mini dp port, which adaptor did you get, is it the xfx or his model

danman2k · 5 Apr 2011 at 12:56

the one i recieved was his and worked with no problems, im not sure if you have missed something or mabe the adaptor is faulty its hard to say

old gamer · 5 Apr 2011 at 13:02

have you tried the displayport in a different monitor

danman2k · 5 Apr 2011 at 13:03

yes tried with a different monitor and no luck, just tried in the other mini DP port still not working

old gamer · 5 Apr 2011 at 13:09

the only thing i can think of now is to just use the displayport on its own with only one monitor and see if you get a signal, if not i would be concerned there was a fault with the adaptor, also look into the monitor settings to see if you have to change the input device manually
