A client purchased a computer with an ATI Radeon HD7350 that has a DVI and a Displayport. The Mobo has a VGA and a Displayport. Two of the monitors are operated by ONLY VGA, and one has either VGA or HDMI. He wishes to purchase and run a 4th monitor in the future. Unfortunately, to me this appears to be impossible, but Lenovo claimed otherwise prior to the purchase. Can this be done and how?

EDIT:

May have figured out solution, and would like confirmation that it could work. Using the three current monitors VGA ports, I could purchase an ACTIVE Displayport to VGA converter, in addition to a DVI-to-dual VGA converter; which in theory could run all three monitors?
 
Solution
Is this an AMD system (CPU) or Intel? If AMD then most likely you can hook up all 4 and go. If the CPU is intel then most likely you will not be able to.

if you have the ports to do it then why not you just can't run eyefinity
 


You never mentioned what mobo...

Also that dual dvi cable requires a specific output namely the DMS59 which I'm not even sure that GPU has, not that I've ever before heard of the 7350.
