I built a cheap cp for my home business and want to use three screens all with dvi cables i only have one dvi dual link on my mobo one hdmi port and one vga im wondering it there is a cable to split the dual link into two connections and then use a cable to convert the hdmi to dvi or will vga be okay to use...i dont care much about refresh rate or anything as its just used to check email and do online things and word docs my build specs are msi a78m-e45 and an amd a6-7400k again i realize as far as performance the a6 isnt going to hold up on anything graphics intensive but its just a work cp

so far i have two working one hooked to the dvi on the mobo and the dvi on the monitor and the other hooked to the vga on the mobo and the vga on the monitor so now im going to order a hdmi to dvi cable and I think it will work I just hooked the second monitor to the vga and thats the one i was worried about and so far so good

I have ran eyefinity in the past on a gaming rig and am currently running a surround set up on my new gaming rig...and i could do that on this but i can run multiple displays without combining them into a single array but will use eyefinity if i cant get it to work this way
