Maybe a stupid question but here goes.

If I were to purchase 3 Samsung S27A750D monitors how would I connect the monitors to a radeon 7970 for eyefinity?

Since the monitor only has HDMI and DP inputs and the 7970 has 2 DP's, 1 HDMI and 1 DVI how would I accomplish this to keep full functionality with eyefinity? HDMI is not 120hz, correct?
 
does that one even support 120hz over dvi?
i read its only 120hz over dp

hdmi is not for 120hz - yes
 
you would have to mix in one of the DVI-D models to run full 120hz eyefin on the 7970. Check out Vega's thread on here.

But, you can still run eyefinity with 3 if you do 2 DP and 1 HDMI. You just wont have 120/3d. I have 3 connected atm and it clocks back to 100hz in eyefinity. Independently, 120/120/60. I can tell you though, it still feels like 120. In windows i can see a massive difference even on the hdmi-connected panel.

Hey thanks for the suggested reading, quite a setup Vega has going on there. Haven't had a chance to read it all but will later today.

One more thing, what if I were to use a Crossfire setup and 3 monitors? Could I then use 2 DP's on one card and 1 DP on the other? I can't seem to find any good diagrams of crossfire with eyefinity setups.
