Post subject: | New to ATI Eyefinity |
I have a few questions with setting up my rig for Eyefinity. First off, I didn't go with the high end video card simply because I don't have the money to get one. So I decided to get this video card. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150467 Now I needed some new monitors and these are what I got. I would like to know if these monitors will work with Eyefinity. The monitors max resolution is 1600x900. Is that going to cause some type of problem with Eyefinity? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824116406 In order to get the third monitor working I need a Displayport adapter to DVI or VGA. So I purchased this adapter. After reading some posts on the forum, it came across me that this adapter won't work. Is this true? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812270280 |

Sorry dude, I don't think that passive DP -> DVI adapter would work. I have heard of some passive DP->VGA/D-sub adpater that would work, but at lower res. There's a thread on EyeFinity dongles aomewhere around here that you can check out. In my case, since I was gonna run EyeFinity at higher res, I went for the Accell B087B-002B, Sapphire has one that looks exactly like it, which works flawlessly on my EyeFinity setup. |

Yea, I just tried using that adapter and it shows 3 monitors in the control center but I can't active it. So I ordered the Dell Displayport to DVI. So any idea if the monitors I got are going to cause any problems? |

I currently have 3 20' ViewSonic Monitors (VX2033wm, max resolution 1600x900). Will the odd resolution cause any problems with Eyefinity? |
