It does not matter, the signal remains the same

The only way to get 4K at 60hz is with the displayport output on the 295X2.

You are welcome, you can ask as many questions you want, we are here to help as much as we can.

Please proceed to RMA the card to the shop where you bought it.

Hi,
I strongly suggest to deinstall the catalyst driver and reinstall the driver first by using a single display.
Once the driver is installed, turn off the system, power off the system and drain the power by pressing the on button on your pc (make sure that the power supply is disconnected from the power cable.
Place everything back again, connect the mst hub to your displayport output, the 3 displays and power on the system. You probably will see all screens on or just a single display. Proceed to configure your display arrangement.

Hi,
The latest version is the version FW 0.45. Would it be possible for you to send it to us for replacement or update?
If yes, please send a mail to [email protected] and explain that you want to update the FW from 0.41A to 0.45
Thank you.

[Paul]

Can you test the card at the shop where you bought the card?
Please make sure that you have applied the latest BIOS updates on your mainboard, make sure that the Windows operating system is up to date and download the latest Catalyst driver.
Make sure that the power supply has sufficient power and the PCI-E 6 pin power connector is connected.
Regards

Hi Senyang,
The AMD FirePro W8100 can support a maximum of 6 displays. If you want a total of 6 displays on this card you will need the MST 1-3 CSV-5300A. 
For example, if you use a CSV-5400 on Port 1 and use 4x 1080p displays you will be able to use port 2 (single display) and 3 (single display) to make a total of 6 displays.
On a different topic about 4K;
AMD allows on this card to configure up to 6 displays in 4K at 30Hz, for this you need to address them how it is configured. You can read here under Future-ready 4K

Hi Richard,
We are in the official program of Designed for Surface, therefore the product is supported. I find it disturbing that they claim that it is not officially supported.

[Paul]

Sorry maybe I did not explain myself correctly, can you give me the number after FW?
Thanks

[Paul]

You can use active adapters. The only advantage by using active adapters on the MST Hub is when you want to go above 1920x1200p in resolution. Passive adapters can only power up to 1200p.
You can use a mix of active and passive adapters without issues.

Ok, understood.
Based on Intel specification the maximum support you have on the Intel HD 4400 is 3 displays.
A CSV-5400 will not be of use to you as the GPU is not capable of driving more than 3 displays through the DP 1.2 port. Multiple DP ports on your docking station will not mean that you can drive either 3 or 4 displays with a MST hub, display support is limited by the GPU used. For example a Radeon R7 or R9 series is able to drive 6 displays with a combination of a MST hub and native video ports on the device.
You can find more information about your GPU under display support here

Hi,
Welcome to Insights!
The main board that you want to choose is fine with the Eyefinity 6 card. I suggest to disable the onboard graphics as it uses the Intel GPU and boot primary to the PCI-E for your graphics.
Now, since the Samsung has already DisplayPort™ inputs, all you need are 6 Mini-DisplayPort™ to DisplayPort™cables, make sure that you buy them with the length you require. No adapters here are required. The other option is to buy Mini-DisplayPort™ to Displayport™ adapters and regular DisplayPort™ cables. 
We recommend the CAC-1110 and the CAC-1064

Now for the power supply I suggest to buy for the 500W a single rail design or a multiple rail such as the one you are choosing with more power. The power supply Pure Power L8 500W has 2 rails and the second rail, which will be powering your GPU external power plus any additional 12v components you place gives you 20A or 240Watt (20×12). Depending on your configuration such DVD-ROM, number of drives etc you might run a bit short on power. The 12V1 has 28A which powers your CPU, PCI-E etc. This will be sufficient for a single graphics card configuration but if you add two graphics card you might run short of power (each PCI-E 16x uses 75W or 6.25A (75/12).

For the Windows 7 64 bit is fine to run 6 displays.

Conclusion
MAINBOARD: ok
GRAPHICS: OK
DISPLAYS: OK
ACCESSORIES: That will depend which road you want to take (adapters + cables or just cables)
POWER: Not convinced if you plan upgrades or have many components in the system.

Cheers

For the Radeon card you should not have any problems with the mst hub. Please note that the mst hub is a dp++ device so you can buy passive adapters to power your displays.

[Paul]

Hi Hal,
Can you please tell me what is the make and model of the all in one machine you have? I want to find out what GPU you have in the PC.
MST (Multi Stream Transport) can drive each display independent and SST (Single Stream Transport) runs spanning as you describe. 
In Radeon based GPUs you can run in MST and you can form a SLS panel across 3 or more displays, AMD named this feature as Eyefinity as an example.
Please get back to me on the question above and I will see if your GPU is supported.
