Hello All,
I am setting up a 3-monitor eyefinity gaming system. Asus technical support gave me this web site to help me solve the issue/problem that I am having of finding a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter that will enable all 3 monitors to operate at the same time at the same resolution.
I am posting a few pictures of the adapter that I bought locally at an Apple Inc. store. This adapter
DOES NOT work for my application. The reason I am posting this is so that hopefully others will not make the mistake that I made.
The adapter that I bought is a "Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter". It includes a male USB port on one end and a female USB port on the other end. So; I believe this USB port is there for convenience rather than providing additional power that is required for a DisplayPort in an Eyefinity setup.
My plan is to purchase the BizLink adapter that is pictured here on this thread. It has a USB male port but no female port; therefore, the male USB side of this adapter must be to supple power.
My system: parts applicable to this thread:
Graphics card: Asus EAH5790 (Radeon)
Monitors: 3 Hanns-G, 28 inch with 2 HDMI inputs (no DVI)
Motherboard: Asus P6X58D Premium LGA 1366, Intel X58
Processor: Intel Core i7-960 Bloomfield, 3.2 GHz, Quad-Core
Great thread, thanks to all.
P.S. I am not sure how to upload an image; my assumption is to use an image hosting service? This is a nuisance, I would prefer a simple upload icon.
I will try to upload 3 images, but I am not sure of my success.
