Hello, I just joined tomshardware.com today so I can ask for help regarding my eyefinity setup. I have been doing the research, but I could not find a consistent answer for my problem. As of now, I have two current displays connected to my HD 7950, and have a third display coming at the end of this week. My displays will be 2, 22in displays, all the same size, same resolution at full HD, and the same company, Dell, the side monitors of my eyefinity setup. I have one display from HP that will be in the middle of my eyefinity setup, full HD, 22 inch size screen.
The problem I am facing will be that my HP display is currently connected via HDMI, and my Dell is connected via DVI-D port. The 2nd Dell monitor coming will have to be connected via displayport as far as I can tell. The problem is that the Dell monitors only have VGA and DVI-D ports. How would I be able to use the 3rd monitor by displayport? Would I need to use an adapter to connect displayport to VGA or DVI-D? And what kind of adapter?
System specs just for anyone's interest is FX-6300, CrossfireX HD 7950, 8GB 1866 MHZ DDR3 RAM (will be getting more in a few weeks), 1 TB HDD, 500GB SSD.
