Was wondering if one of you guys could tell me if the following setup will allow me to do an Eyefinity 3 config:

(2) Radeon HD 6950 cards Crossfired
(2) HP 2159 21.5" monitors, and an Acer 21.5. They will be hooked up as follows:

HP(1) HDMI-DP cable ---> DP port
HP(2) HDMI ---> HDMI port (or HDMI-DP cable ---> DP port; I have 2 HDMI-DP cables)
Acer DVI ---> DVI port

According to a paper from AMD I found, this should work. The second HP monitor is on its way, so I guess I'll find out for myself soon enough, but if anyone has a similar setup, does it work?
 
Crossfired cards can only output on one of the two cards, and on that card, there can only be 2 legacy devices attached at a time (i.e. DVI/HDMI). In order to get the third screen running, you need an active DP -> DVI adapter for the monitors that you have. The DP->HDMI cable will work until you add the third screen...
