Has anyone used it with the displayports on Radeon GPUs? If so, has it allowed you to run the third monitor as expected?

Yes, I am currently running three monitors, with one on display port with an HD 7770. Works great so far, been running it for about two months without issue.
1390934
Yes and yes! I am running the 8350 and the 7950 and have three monitors. This was the missing piece to getting it all to work properly with eyefinity.
1390935
Yes, I am using an ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series card and the active converter in this adapter allows the 3rd display to be used. I'm using 2 monitors via DVI and a TV hooked up to this adapter and all 3 can be configured to work simultaneously (split screen, same output, etc.)

Running these to drive 70" Sharp quattron panels and have zero issues, 1, 2, or 3 panels perfect.Well worth the couple dollars over R*fish or A**!e cables
1390937
@Elliot, yes. I use it for my third monitor with a Radeon HD 6970 and it works flawlessly. This IS the active converter you're looking for.
1390938
I have. I'm using it with a Radeon R7770 and have triple monitors going right now.
1390939
Yes this will work for a third monitor. It is an active adapter like advertised.

http://support.amd.com/en-us/recommended/eyefinity-adaptersWhat you are looking for is an Active terminator. Yes, this works for a third output.

As far as what I have read on another site it can support 2 but for the third monitor you would need an adapter.hope this helps.

No. The Nvidia drivers only allow you to use 2 monitors at a single time with this card. I tried to use 3 monitors using the Windows interface and then again with the Nvidia driver interface. The Windows interface doesn't allow you to use 3 monitors but doesn't tell you why. The Nvidia interface specifically tells you that this card only supports 2 video outputs.

Did you load the software that came with it? If not then you should. I used that to configure vs using the nvidia config so that I can run 3 monitors at the same time. Also when I had updated my video driver it killed it. I had to roll the driver back to allow it to work again

The info on how to set it up should be here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/search/faq/154 more FAQ here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/MultimonitorFAQ.aspx On AMD's page for the 7750 it says it can do "Up to 6 displays supported with DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport": AMD Eyefinity multi-display technology: To enable more than two displays, additional panels with native DisplayPort connectors, and/or DisplayPort compliant active adapters to convert your monitor's native input to your cards DisplayPort or Mini-DisplayPort connector(s), are required. Support for six simultaneous displays may require complementary products compatible with DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport. Maximum number of configured displays may vary - check with your component or system manufacturer for specific model capabilities and supported technologies.

I have seen references to ATI Eyefinity software that is supposed to support three monitors from this card, but I have not installed that software, nor have I tried three monitors on the card I have ( two works well, and that's what I need personally ). Also, if you're forced to use a low profile card, you will only be able to see the hdmi and dvi ports with the lo profile adapter on the card.

I don't believe it will work with anything new but the older geforce stereoscopic 3d driver from around 2009 did work for me a couple of years ago but required the old school red & blue glasses so that's not going to be any good for gaming. I know that nvidia surround will require 2+ gpu's to run multiple monitors, so either a really expensive dual gpu card or an sli setup (2+ cards and a mobo w/ sli capability) if you go the nvidia route... you could always save some money and get a radeon with eyefinity and some display port adapters.

All indications are that yes, this monitor works with the Display port (1.2) input BUT I have been reading in the Dell forums that these monitors may have a bug from dell manufacturing. While using display port 1.1 all seems find but when trying to daisy chain displays and enable display port 1.2, the monitors become undetectable. Here is the rub, I am NOT using display port, I am using DVI cables supplied by dell and I get the same issue where intermittently a monitor(s) disappear and just can not be detected until the dvi cable(s) are removed from said monitor(s) and replaced - This is terrible. Finally the monitor in question just died and will not power on. I now have to send the monitor to dell to be fixed. Finally, I switched back to one of my older 22" LED monitors to use with the second working 27" Dell and now IT is exhibiting the same behavior - God help me.... In sum, Is the monitor worth it? OH My, yes it is! It looks Fantastic! BUT make sure your purchase some luck and patience because it looks like there are firmware issues on these monitors and the fixes are slow in coming and may require that the third party video card developers may need to tweak their drivers to fully work with these monitors. In the development/manufacturing world this would be considered as a debacle and now I am in the middle of it. Sheesh...

Not this version. The newer one that come with a DISPLAYPORT can do three montiors. Search results: http://superuser.com/questions/110328/does-the-radeon-hd-5450-support-three-displayshttp://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1639382/radeon-5450-monitors.html

Seiki 4k display works fine if connected using an ACTIVE DisplayPort adapter. I will attempt to hook up second 4k DISPLAY via the DVI port next week. I expect it will take some testing of video card settings and has perhaps 50% chance of working before I give up due to sunk cost.

It can run 3 monitors, I have mine on a hybrid eyefinity setup. BUT you will need an ACTIVE displayport adapter otherwise you can only run 2 screens at once.

I presently have three monitors connected to the card with two other slots available. Since I do not have the need for five monitors I have not tested such a configuration however, the three that I have work perfectly. One for gaming, one for general use, and the other for streaming Netflix movies. Being ADHD this config satisfies my need for multiple views. :-)

Yes, that is what I am doing. I have a graphics card with 3 display ports and one HDMI. I have 3 monitors (actually samsung 22 inch LED tvs) and works without an hitch.

Rob I the specs say "supports 2 monitors." This is really great card for the prize and based on many comparisons I made. Look at the specs at visiontek.. you may want to call visiontek to double check on the monitor capability but I do not believe it will support 3 monitors. If you end up buying this buy it from Amazon. Reason is I had a problem on a return to visiontek on another card. they are a bit hard nosed. Check my Amazon review on a different visiontek card I purchased and exchanged. Amazon took care of it. Not sure how much expertise you have with computers but if it is an older one the motherboard may not handle it. so check the mobo also. Good luck. Rob I the specs say "supports 2 monitors."

correction..... I read the question too fast. I have no problems with the 3rd monitor. 2 works fine - 1 external and the laptop as the 2nd. sorry for the confusion

Hello Yakov. The unit comes with an installation CD which has the drivers. It's quite an easy install process. In my "original" setup, my laptop was display 1 and my other monitor attached to my VGA output was display 2. With this new unit attached to a USB port, I now have display 3. Yes, it will work. :)

Yep, Eyefinity is highly configurable. I prefer three monitors (I use 3x1680x1050), but I believe this card supports more.See http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/MultimonitorFAQ.aspx
