Hey all, my question is this - I've got 3 monitors and the R9 280x with the following connectors:
DVI x2
Mini HDMI x1
Mini DP x2
Right now I've got two legacy connections plugged into the GPU (straight DVI to DVI)
My last connection is a DVI with an active HDMI adapter from my last setup. If I buy a passive HDMI to mini HDMI adapter will the 'activeness' from the DVI to HDMI pass through to the 3rd display?
In other words, do I need yet another active adapter (an HDMI to mini HDMI) for the 3rd connection if I chose to use HDMI for my third monitor?
Thanks!
