390 with 5 monitors - help.

Post by elior77 »

Hey,

I just got this 390:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814202164

sku 11244-01-20g

I installed fresh win7x64 and amd 15.2 driver, I got 2x22" identical + 2x19" identical + 23" - Just in order to make sure I can run 5 monitors.

I can only drive 3...

Any idea ?

Thanks !

PS I see this card here :

So which 3 Monitors are working?
If you unplug 2 of them do the other 2 work?
What happens if you replug them?
We gonna send it to outa space!

I can check and find out exactly how is works but for now I can say that the first 3 monitors will work - no need for active dp.

If I connect 5, the first 3 will work, if I disconnect one of the working 3, number 4 will work, disco the second one from the original 3, number 5 will work.

With two active DP, all five come to life !

Now I need to find space for this setup.

Active DP adapter was the culprit. Make a video or take some pictures when you're done. I love 5x1 Portrait setups.
