Thanks Paul. I will buy one more miniDP to Active HDMI cable. I will update the result after testing.

Thanks Paul. My requirement is to use 3 HDMI monitors (Viewsonic V3D231) and one VGA. I have no problem connecting 2 Viewsonic monitor with active HDMI and one LG with VGA but 3rd HDMI Viewsonic monitor is not working with VGA (passive miniDP to HDMI is not working). I want to know can I connect 3 miniDP to active HDMI and one miniDP to VGA in this card?

Hi Paul, I brought 2 numbers of miniDP to Active HDMI cables (from cablematters) and used 2 numbers of miniDP to VGA connectors(as shown in my earlier picture). The graphics card able to provide the simultaneous 4 displays now with two Viewsonic V3D231 monitors and 1 acer AL1716 monitor and 1 LG 16M65A monitor.

When I connect Viewsonic V3D231 monitor instead of  acer AL1716 as a 3rd monitor, On restart all the monitors are powering up without any problem. but when I shutdown and start again none of these monitors are detecting. I need to unplug the miniDP to VGA cables(both) to detect the Active HDMI monitors and after detecting if I connect the VGA monitors it works fine again until shutdown and start.

My doubt is if I buy one more miniDP to Active HDMI cable and connect the 3rd viewsonic monitor (3 miniDP to Active HDMI and 1 miniDP to VGA), whether this setup will work? or I must use only 2 miniDP to ActiveHDMI?

Let me try to find the solution. Thank you, very much Paul. You helped a lot.

Good morning Paul. Club3D adapters are not available in my country (India). This graphics cards I imported from Germany. Can you please suggest some other cable. If you can please post the connected picture like how I had posted earlier (It will help me to see the configuration).
Thank you.

It is not about image, After installing It is not detecting the monitor at all. I Checked this by connecting both VGA and HDMI but it detects only VGA monitor not the HDMI monitor. If I connect only HDMI it is not detecting. In monitor I am getting no signal indication. If I connect VGA then no problem it detects and working. Adapter cable  does not contain any name on it. It is purchased locally.

I can buy the active HDMI adapter but my worry is whether it will detect and work along with VGA adapter?

Thanks.

Hi Paul, I have attached two pictures with this message. Today I found that miniDP to HDMI passive is working with the graphics card if I don’t install the driver (pic1). Once I install the graphics driver (The one comes with the card or the latest omega driver) it works only up to windows booting. If I connect like pic2 (VGA) it works any time (before and after driver installation). If I connect both always only MiniDP-VGA is working other connectors(monitors) are not getting detected.[img]http://insights.club-3d.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Pic1.jpg[/img][img]http://insights.club-3d.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/pic2.jpg[/img]

Thanks Paul, I will check and let you know.

I tried by connecting single monitor with this converter(MiniDP to HDMI) and starting my operating system, the window boot up screen appears in the monitor and after starting windows it disappears. After this only MiniDP to VGA is able to provide display. I don’t know whether it is because of some Driver issue since it is providing the display till windows boot up.

My doubt is at least one passive (assuming) MiniDP to HDMI should work right?

Thanks Paul, I intend to use this for 2D purpose. Later I am going to replace these monitors with AOC D2367PH (They are good for stereoscopic 3D, Viewsonic supports stereoscopic 3D only with Tridef (Tridef does not support openGL)). so for my configuration can I use 2 MiniDP to VGA active converters and 2 MiniDP to HDMI passive converter. But as I stated earlier I tried using MiniDP to HDMI passive converter it is not working even for single display. I tried connecting single monitor with this converter and started my system, the window boot up screen appears in the monitor and after starting windows it disappears then only MiniDP to VGA is able to provide display.

Hi Paul,
I have 3 Viewsonic V3D231 monitors and one LG monitor (16M65A – only VGA compatible). I am currently having one MiniDP to VGA converter. both these monitors are not DP compatible but both are working with this converter since I have only one converter I checked them by connecting one by one and also I checked this in all MiniDP ports in Graphics card and found it is functioning. My question is can I buy 4 of this MiniDP to VGA converter (It is cheaper in price) to drive all 4 monitors (3- Viewsonic and 1 LG)? Thank you.

Thanks Paul,
Yes I have Eyefinity 4 version (Club3D Radeon R7 250 Low Profile Eyefinity 4). I normally use dual display for my work. I saw this 4 connector (Mini DP) and thought all four are going to provide display if I convert this display port to my monitor compatible connectors. I am not familiar with the DP adapters. Currently I checked a single MiniDP to VGA (I guess passive connector) converter in all DP port of my graphics card by connecting one by one. It is able to provide the display only the MiniDP to HDMI converters are not working. I have a doubt, If I buy 4 Mini DP to VGA converters and use this card will this provide the simultaneous 4 displays? or  please suggest me what are all the adapters I should buy to make this card deliver 4 displays.
