To solve the issue with DVI/HDMI and DisplayPORT all having different clocks,

the best option for "Non" Eyefinity 6 Cards is to run a 1.2 Display Port Hub, and Run 2 or all 3 screens from one DisplayPort 1.2 Port to a HUB, which splits the 3 streams and send them out to each monitor which can be connected to the hub Via DVI.

There are "Concept" hubs all over the net with DisplayPort 1.2 Input and 3 DVI/HDMI Outputs. each capable of Running 3x 1080p/60Hz screens off 1 display port. meaning cards with two 1.2 Display Ports can run 6 Screens on the Same Clock.

However, All i can Find is the old Display Port 1.0/1.1 hubs with Resolution Limits.

I haven't seen any yet... Thank God for my Eyefinity 6 card! I won't be getting another graphics card update until the tech is there to solve this, either via a hub or another Eyefinity 6 type of deal with mini DP connections.

AMD partners scrapped Eyefinity 6 because of DP 1.2 having the ability to drive 3 streams on the MST Hub, but i havent seen no Hub,

i'd pay for the HUB and just drive all my screens off 1 DP.


Oy...

Ah, I did not know Eyefinity 6 was dropped altogether...

A DP hub sounds cool.



I never had problems with my 5870 driving the side monitors using DVI and the center using DP, what sort of problems are people experiencing?

The only problems I recall were people without DP native monitors and DP->DVI adapters that were not working correctly but I would hope 2 years later the DP adapters would have been shaken out.

the 5000 Series didnt have that problem.

the 6000/7000 series do.

DisplayPort uses Packets and a different "clock" than the HDMI/DVI/VGA Ports do, so you get sync tearing on 1 or 2 screens, depending on which screen interface you set to deferred.

A couple announcements of a 78xx series Eyefinity 6 edition card.

There was at least one 68xx series Eyefinity 6 edition card... "Visiontek 900373 Radeon HD 6870 Eyefinity 6 Video Card - 2GB"


But yes, it sure would be nice to see some MST hubs show up for DisplayPort 1.2

eyefinty 6 on a card that would barely run some games on 1 screen doesnt make sense.

Wow thanks for that video Skate, indeed that screentear on the side monitors if it occurs all the time would bug the crap out of me.

if i go into battlefield and play and come back to the desktop it went away.

but BF3 had tearing on left and right screens in game. but only noticable on large outdoor maps when i was flying choppers.
