    Ive brought this up before but no one with my setup has been able to give me an answer. I have an r4 with a 680m and just got my third monitor for xmas and was wondering if i can run them in nvidia surround. I run two monitors all the time through the dvi and hdmi and have no problems there. So i was hoping i can buy an active display port to dvi and get surround to work. One guy with an msi said he could not but i was hoping since the m17 r4 has the 3 display adaptor ports it would work with an active dispay port. Not sure why i couldnt.
