Hi all,

I'm trying to set up 3 displays on my computer. I had this working with a graphic card that had 2x Dvi ports and a reg displayport, but I RMA'd and got new graphics card with 2 DVI ports, HDMI and 2 mini displayports. I bought a mini displayports to DVI converter and its not working, not sure if its defective. But I need to buy a new one compatible for amd eyefinity. I only need 3 monitors, but if price is close I'd like a setup that allows for future expansion. My 3 monitors only have DVI and a vga port.

I can add details if needed, hopefully my signature shows my setup.


To reply to an answer, I don't know much about getting splitters (for possible 6 monitors) and a Google search produces either dual monitor setup, or the software side of setting up 6 displays, rather than the component side. Do I get a splitter on the DVI or mini Displayport?

Thank you,

It could be that it is defective, getting an eyefinity adapter would be the better option here as far as I know.
