Hi,

I upgraded my pc last week, my old GPU was a Sapphire Vapour-X HD5870 eyefinity model, that had 2 x DVI outputs, 1 x display port, 1 x HDMI

My main centre monitor has a display port input, and my 2 x outer monitors have DVI ports, this was perfect four my old setup.

Now I have upgraded to 2 x Gigabyte HD7950 in crossfire, these cards have 2 x mini displayports, 1 x DVI, 1 X HDMI outputs each.

I cant get my eyefinity to work. Can anyone help me with how to get it working please.

Thanks
Craig
 
The way I need to connect them is have my main primary display to the mini dp port via a mini dp to dp adaptor which I have and am using already.

The other 2 monitors I need to get to dvi inputs, I can use the one dvi output to get one minitor working so basically what I need is to get from the other mini dp port output to a dvi input on my third monitor but I'm not sure what lead/adaptor I need.
 
I think I would prefer the last one as I have already tried to connect my main monitor to the HDMI output via a HDMI to Displayport lead and it would not work, so that makes me question how the HDMI output works.

Would it not need to be an active adaptor? I don't want to buy the wrong one
