Eyefinity not working on 3rd monitor, ATI HD5870 Ef 6 Options

[neo82]

Hi,

I'm having the same problem with my HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 Radeon Card. So, now I want to be sure that I buy all the right things, because the first time I bought 6 VGA LED monitors, but they didn't work with this card. Then I bought 6 HP 2011x monitors, but now I see that only 2 work, and the other don't work. I was becoming crazy, but then I arrived at this forum. Reading here I see that I have to buy 4 ACTIVE miniDisplay Port to DVI. Then all will work perfectly. My english is not perfect because I'm Italian, so I hope I understood well. Now I would like that you confirm which are these Adapters, because on e-bay I found some ACTIVE adapters but they are without the USB interface, like this:

Do you think that this can work on my monitors to be able to use 6 monitors?

I hope in your help, thanks

apparently the single link active dp adapters for 1080p and lower dont need usb power only the dual link ones do but there has been some passive adapters being sold as active.... so good luck
