So I have a 5680HD running eyefinity (HDMI, DVI, DPORT) just fine, but I want to add another monitor (my TV) to the onboard intel chipset HDMI output. When I do it, all of the monitors go black.

Anyone have any idea if this can be done?

As far as I know, you can't use both onboard and the dedicated GPU at the same time, so it shouldn't be possible to use that HDMI output to add another screen.

Edit: You could connect a fourth screen to that same AMD GPU, but it would have to go through Display Port. Not sure about what your connection options are.

Ive got 4 monitors connected to my eyefinity card - but then again, ive got 6 dp ports on my card.
But using more the onboard card at the same time doesnt really work as far as I know. Your limited to 1 gfx card or several of the same kind.

shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.
