Eyefinity 3 monitors, third not detected?

J-I-M · 17 Sep 2011 at 18:50

Hi everyone, i've just bought 2 Asus monitors to go with my third and planned on running 3 way monitor display, however i can only get 2 monitors to be detected by the card? I was told my overclockers I wouldn't need anything other than the monitors i bought and the ATI 6950, am i missing something? I've read about a display port or something however like stated above, i was told i would have everything i needed to run eyefinity?

It's very typical, as i did ask the technical support line of overclockers who are usually golden that i was not in need of any other devices which is ever so frustrating considering i paid an extra £30 to have the equipement delivered for the weekend - The card i'm using is this one http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-273-SP&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1752

Thanks for the reply - The 2 asus montiors i just bought yesterday both have 1 HDMI slot and 1 DVI and one VGA - Graphics card has 2 DVI 1 HDMI - 1 DP.

So basically i'm stuck with using a VGA display port? Must admit this really has ruined my weekend I have no idea why the technician on the end of the line told me I would need nothing other than what i purchased ;(

I wasn't supplied with any adapter, only thing I got out of the graphics card was the card and a few cables.

I believe so but they don't seem to anymore, and I've searched a few shops and it looks like i'll be waiting over a week for one to be delivered, really ruined my weekend.

I'll try and find the DVI Displayport adapter however everywhere i've found so far gives a rough estimate of 2 weeks delivery :mad:

Overclockers, why don't you blooming sell them! *Angry fist*

Thanks Marine, i'll give that a blast and see the what the outcome is.

I was thinking the same, just using an DVI to VGA Adapter I doubt there'll be much of a difference if any, shame overclockers have no available delivery dates untill tuesday, but i'll go for this one i think.
