| Update: I have been able to get the 4th screen working with a new DP to DVI adapter. Unfortunately, I can't get 4 screens working at once. When trying to enable the extended screen, I get an error message from CCC saying: Operation Not Supported This operation is not supported based on current displ... |

| Unplug Any of the 3 other monitors and Check if it works then. Unplug all 3 others and Recheck. If No. Adapter problem If yes GPU connection Problem. I Know flex cards can handle 3 monitors. But 4? Ok, will try that. The flex 6950 supports 5 outputs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJGxlG1iq7I |

| Does your monitor have more than one type of video port? If so you might have to switch it to the right channel. I think you're referring to an input/source issue? That is not it. If I switch the configuration with the adapters on a different monitor, then that monitor does the same thing. So it's ... |

| Ok, need some ideas/advice on this one. I am currently running 3x1 Eyefinity with DVI, DVI, and HDMI on a Sapphire Flex 6850. I am trying to add a 4th monitor as a extended monitor. After a lot of fiddling, I have been able to get CCC and Windows to detect the 4th monitor, but for some reason this m... |

| With answer like that I'm surprised you'll get any help from me in the future. You'll find that I do know what I'm talking about. I subcontract out to AMD directly to assist them at their promotional events. Now what is done as a one-off aftermarket design by a partner vender isn't normal. If they ... |

| The sapphire flex edition can supposedly work without using one of the mini-display ports for output on the 3rd monitor in eyefinity. I am not sure how well it lives up to it's claim, but I have purchased this card and I can report back in a couple of days after I receive it. As for avoiding displa... |

| Ok, I'm either not understanding what you are saying, or you are blatantly contradicting what is said that the cards can do. Why is it I still need an DP adapter? Why is it that I can use EVERY output on the card at once, but if I only use 3, I have to use a DP adapter? To quote some reviews: I foug... |

Any solutions would be welcome, such as having multiple gpus, a hdmi/vga/dvi splitter (that outputs to two displays at the same time), etc. I don't know of any/can't think of anything that will... |

There are many generations of Transformers, and those in paticular were made for a more realistic/complex look, I'm assuming, which I believe they did pretty well. At the same time, I was a fan of the original Transforme... |

Check out what I said in this thread:

If you plan to crossfire, you're not going to be able to use more than 3 monitors. If you aren't going to crossfire, don't get another 5870. |
