One or Two Active adapters for Eyefinity?

SkyChotik · Aug 22, 2013

I wasn't sure to put this in Video Cards or Monitors.
Do I need to use one or two active mini displayport to dvi adapters to do 3 monitor eyefinity?

Only 1, assuming your card has 2 dvi ports.

I have 1 DVI, 1 HDMI, and 2 Mini DP

Just one. You can use HDMI or a passive adapter for your other monitor.

Thanks! Time to go get an active adapter!

Any that you guys recommend?

I think sapphire makes a fairly inexpensive one that doesn't need external power but I haven't ever done eyefinity so I can't help with what adapters work best.

They're all pretty much the same. Get one made by a GPU manufacturer, they're like $25-$30 on newegg.
