Gigabyte 5770 3 monitors set up

[ququ]

I really need your help, i have been trying to connect 3 monitors to my pc but keep getting settings is not possible two 17 inc and one 19 inch

i used:
1 monitor: Dp port To DVI D but use simple dvi i Cable
2. HDMI to DVI I
3. Simple DVI i

Does anyone know what i do wrong ?

Does every monitor alone work?
What happens when you use the other DVI port on the GPU ?

[ququ]

yes, monitors work perfectly and i can use it to two dvi ports for two monitors but then others two dont work

[Haldi]

2+2= 4?
Are you sure you have an Active DP to DVI adapter?

[ququ]

I ment i use it in two dvi d outputs then DP and HDMI wont work ofcourse i can connect DVI D + HDMI and DVI D but only two will work :/

[Haldi]

Totally sounds like a passive DP -> DVI adapter.

[Delphium]

I would agree with Haldi, the DP-=>DVI Adapter looks and sounds like it behaves like a passive adapter.
You will require an active adapter to be able to enable more than 2 monitors at any one time.

I use one of these http://store.hp.com/UKStore/Merch/Produ ... =&sel=BACC.

Worked great on my HD5850 and now my 290 as well (and now that I have a 290 I should probably look at the back of my case...)

[Haldi]

Oh thats a VGA adapter not a DVI.... Okay.

Well on the 290 you dont need the adapter anymore! This card supports 2x DVI and HDMI Nativ.

How can i tell if it's passive or active adapter ( In ebay description they wrote active )

[Suedenim]

Active ones usually have some kind of power requirement usually a usb cable.

[Haldi]

Nope, not anymore.
There are a few Dp-DVI (not dual) active adaptera that don't need an external Power source anymore
