| I bought 2 mini DP ->DVI active adapters only to have one fail after about 10 minutes. I was then fortunate to find mini dp to dp cables (no adapter, just a cable with mini dp at one end and dp at the other). Definitely the best solution as far as I am concerned, so worth hunting around for. That w... |

| You need at least one display to be connected via a Mini-DP port. You will need an active mini-DP to VGA adaptor. Good to know. I'm noticing that most of these active adapters are $20 bucks or more. I'm assuming the safe bet is to get one that AMD lists on its dongle support page. Something I notic... |

| Hey guys. I'm building a new gaming machine (donating the old rig to my wife so we can play SWTOR together), but I'm stumped as to what to get for GPUs.
