Title: Dummy plug for numeric output, Display port, HDMI, DVI
Post by: Transisto on July 09, 2011, 12:03:52 AM
I have 5870 Eyefinity 6 and they have mini displayport output only.

There is no way to plug a dvi-vga in there.

Wondering what are the minimum requirement for a numeric dummy plug.

Thanks

Install AMD Catalyst 11.7 preview drivers, it removes the need for dummy plugs in distributed computing tasks.

I.e. apps will detect GPUs without being plugged into monitors or using dummy plugs.
