Hi there, I'm currently using a Sapphire Radeon R9 280X 3GB Video Card for my computer, both VGA ports being directed to individual monitors, but i recently though about buying a third monitor, so would it be possible to connect the third monitor via the HDMI port on the card and have 3? Or would I have to purchase a secondary card for it to work?

OR, Could i convert the HDMI into VGA and then have (practically) 3 VGA ports?

Wait, according to the specs it has 2 VGA ports, 1 hdmi, 1 DVI-I, 1 DVI-D, (both 'dual-link'..?)

Does that mean that its possible?
