HELP WITH 3 monitor setup

[Caleb_dm]

Hey guys, any help will be greatly appreciated. So I have a Club 3D radeon R9 270. It has 3 ports: DVI, displayport and HDMI. So I recently bought a 3rd display. I had the first 2 hooked up over VGA and HDMI. For the new monitor I bought a displayport to HDMI cable. After hooking these up I have this problem where only 2 of 3 work at any given time and whatever I do I just cannot get all 3 working at the same time. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

I'm no genius but I think that you can either only have 2 displays because that's what they limited it at or you need to run it in crossfire

It looks like you need an active DP to HDMI cable. Do you have an active or a passive one? Active ones are usually bulky and have extra circuitry in them. Passive ones are pretty much slim ends on a slim cable.

Edit: I somehow missed that you had a R9 series card. Quick question though, do the same two monitors work during start-up as in windows itself?
