Hey all,

I have three monitors, each with HDMI and DVI connections. I also have a 980 Ti that has 3 DP, 1 HDMI, and 1 DVI ports.

I used to have a 7950 and to get all three working on the 7950 I needed to use active adapters.

Currently I have 1 HDMI and 1 DVI plugged into my 980Ti. Would the third monitor need to be an active adapter, or could I just use a passive adapter (displayport to dvi)? I read conflicting information in various forums, so I was hoping someone could give me a definitive answer.

Thanks!
