Eyefinity 3 monitors

Hi,

I have three of these:

And these two graphics cards crossfired:

At the moment, I have 2 plugged in with DVI cables and 1 with HDMI to DVI (HDMI is plugged into graphics card).

These are all plugged into the HIS ATI Radeon HD 6870.


I have managed to set-up eyefinity with 2 of the monitors, but after reading some places, it seems I need a active display port or something?

Is there anyway to create a 3 monitor eyefinity set-up with these components?

I've looked around and googled quite a bit.

Just need someone to clear it up for me as I'm lost at the moment.

Thanks for reading and any answers.

Hi,

For my primary card, it says this:

• Mix Eyefinity - AMD's Eyefinity is enabled via HDMI without using expensive Display Port monitors and Active Adapters. Eyefinity is also enabled via HDMI to DVI adaptor.

It's just working out how to do it.

EDIT:

That is the 6970 not the 6870! Sorry

My main graphics card does not have one, it only has a mini display port, would a converter for that work?

I own both of the ones I link,
But I use this as my primary card.

I believe I can use a mini display port to DVI.

According to AMD's site anyway.

Here's the link if anyone else would like to read it.
