So I have 2 x 280Xs in crossfire. And want to enable Eyefinity.
2 Monitors pick up no problem. The third does not.

The working monitors are plugged into Card #1 DP port and HDMi port.
The third monitor is plugged into another HDMI port in Card #2.

What am I doing wrong?
 
Really? Theres no way to do it via the second gfx card? I just disbled crossfire and all monitors are working fine now... its weird.
 
Ok so all 3 monitors are being detected but I cant get the blasted thing to go configure all 3 monitors for eyefinity...

E: So I have each monitor plugged into the same GFX card. One via DP, one via HDMI and the other via DVI.

2 monitors are displaying, but it refuses to display a third. And I have no idea why this is.

So I heard about these active DP adaptors but I was told these are no longer necessary since the R9s have this inbuilt or something?
 
Sorry dont understand your question bud?

Basically this is the situation.


DVI -> HDMI (using a DVI to HDMI convertor)
DP -> HDMI (Just a cable with DP on one end and HDMI on the other)
HDMI -> HDMI

E: Just to clarify I do not have DP adaptor or anything like that. Just purely cables. I believe that the 280Xs dont need an Active DP adaptor?
 
Well the DP is in one of the monitors, does it matter which monitor?

E: Sorry do you mean does the Monitor HAVE DP itself?

To be clear all monitors do not have DVI or DP. Just HDMI inputs.
 
Thanks for the explanation. Bit of a pain but there you go.

I ordered this.
