So I have a pair of 7770s running in crossfire x they have the following out puts...

mini display port 2x
hdmi 1x
dvi - dual link 1x

I have a dvi cable paired straight with the dvi dual link (MONITOR 1)
I have a mini display (cable) running to a display port monitor (benq bl2201) (the cable is a mini dp to dp cable) (MONITOR 2)

My question is to complete the eyefinity setup for monitor 3 do I need

an HDMI to dvi cable straight connecting to the monitors dvi...

or

a Mini DisplayPort to DVI Active Adapter w/DVI cable connecting to the monitors dvi?

HDMI to DVI should suffice.
