So here's the deal. I am trying to use Eyefinity with two ASUS monitors and a LG tv as the third monitor. both monitors hook up with DVI and the TV hooks up with HMDI cable. All of this is going to my graphics card which is a Sapphire Radeon R9 290 Tri-X. Applications such as Microsoft edge and system settings work fine when I try to use eyefinity but games do not. On games it copies the first monitor onto the other monitor and the TV. I do not understand why this is happening. If anyone could help it would be much appreciated. Thanks :)
 
To actually use AMD eyefinity, you must have one Displayport connection.

AMD recommends that you connect the HDTV via HDMI. If you wish to connect an HDTV in addition to multiple monitors, then:
The first non-TV display may be connected to any output (HDMI, DVI, VGA, DP).
The TV should be connected to HDMI.
The remaining displays must be connected to the GPU's DisplayPort outputs. You may use active DisplayPort adapters if these remaining displays don't natively offer support for DisplayPort.
