3 monitors without Eyefinity

[Bart Vanderbeke]

Hi everyone!

I have a question about my graphics card. I have a Radeon HD7950 Royalqueen card. It has 2 DVI ports, 1 HDMI and 2 mini-Displayports. I always used to runit with 2 monitors, 1 on one of the DVI ports and another on the HDMI-port. I've bought myself a 48" TV for christmas, that I thought I'd use just to watch movies/series from my pc, and occasionally for my xbox one (don't use that as much as i'd like).

So when I hook it up to the GPU on whatever slot, either one of my monitors stop, or both monitors work but not the tv. I've tried setting them up with eyefinity, which works, but it's not what I'm looking for. I'm actually trying to use them as 3 seperate monitors in stead of 1 big monitor, which is what Eyefinity does. I would basically want to use my 2 monitors as an extended desktop, and my TV as a third monitor, or, if nothing else works, as a copy of my secondary monitor.

Is this possible without having to buy an extra GPU or without using Eyefinity?

Thanks anyway,

Bart

Hi, Third monitor requires Eyefinity, AFAIK (active displayport to whatever).
