Eyefinity with 4 monitors?

[IronWarrior]

I'm currently setting up my brothers PC and he has four monitors.

We just brought a MSI 6950 Rev 1 for the PC which can power four monitors, but how do you set it up when all the monitors only have DVI ports?

I know you need one Active DP to DVI adapter to get three working, but what about four?

Do you need a second Active DP to DVI adapter?

Or can you set it up like this..

DVI - DVI
DVI - DVI
HDMI - DVI
DP - Active DP to DVI - DVI?

Doesn't that card have 2 mini-DP, 1 DL-DVI, 1 SL-DVI and 1 HDMI ?

If so, go for 2 active mini-DP -> DVI adapters and use the 2 DVI ports. Should work.

Yes, 2 Mini DP, 2 DVI and 1 HDMI.

Just got told elsewhere that I will need two active adapters as well!

So now I just need to find two mini DP to DVI adatpers, Sapphire has one but can't find anyone selling it in the UK at the moment. Scan.co.uk has the big brother version.

Two of these should do, they're on the AMD list.
