Purely basing on the eyeinfinity setup that i had the honor to build for a friend, you dont need the active dongle unless you are pusing 2560x1600 resolution on the monitor(s)

@Earlz, how can you setup without a dongle? coz at the back of the xfx 5970, it only have 2 dvi & a mini display port. how can i setup the 3rd lcd without the dongle? can you teach me how sir. thanks.

^You mean you only have 3 ports in your 5970? 2xDVI and a Display Port?

What I ment was you dont need an "Active Type" dongle, pwede ra passive, if 2560x1600 imong resolution then you need the active dongles, your 5970 should come with a dongle, no ?

EDIT:

Forgot to add that you can actually mix and match the ports provided you know w/c port is shared for example sa 5870 , it has 2x DVI-D 1x DP and 1x HDMI, the HDMI and 1 of the DVI-D ports are shared so automatic if you use both DVI-D ma disable ang HDMI, so that leaves your monitor to connecting via DP and DVI-D 2x.

@personalmgt

Naa diay lain port config ana ?
Ang 2x 5970 sa akong migo has the same ports 2x DVI-D and 1x DP, his came with a Dongle already, BUT his monitors are DVI-D ( Dell U2410 3x )

Simple guide:




you need to buy something like this from sapphire (sold seperately @ 4700 pesos) :

My HD 5770 has 2 DVIs, 1 DP and 1 HDMI if im correct. Hexus says its indeed a HDMI

PS: It's a Sapphire HD 5770 Vapor-X

andz,


Is anyone selling this here in the Philippines?

I've yet to find a monitor nga naay displayport apart from Dell and Apple. Both are pretty expensive. I just need a basic 24" nga 1920x1200 then naa nay displayport.

[andz]

yes i am, the sapphire brand, same as the picture.. but 1 stock ra..

of course its expensive, its usually being sold at the US for $100.
