I have 2 r9 290's and want 3x 4k monitors. However my problem is, the 290 (can only use the top card ports, crossfire and all) only has 1x DP and 1x HDMI. I'm using both right now for my 2 samsung 4k's but would like to add a third. Options?
 


If you had gotten 2x 780, that's like $350 each, you would've been close to the $700 zone anyways.

Look at the prices, if you add the 780, you'd be going over the 295x2 price actually.
