I want to use this for AMD Eyefinity, but my graphics card only supports Mini Displayport 1.2, is this DP1.2?

DisplayPort v1.2 was designed to be compatible with existing DisplayPort systems and cables. To take advantage of the new capabilities, a PC will need to be DisplayPort v1.2 enabled, however existing standard cables can still be used, including those with the new Mini-DisplayPort connector. To achieve the 21.6 Gbps rate, the per-lane data rate is doubled from 2.7 Gbps to 5.4 Gbps, over the four lanes that exist in the standard cable. For a single display, this enables up to 3840 x 2400 resolution at 60Hz, or a 3D display (120Hz) at 2560 x 1600. It is completely backward compatible with DisplayPort v1.1a and requires no new cables or other equipment. Now to answer your question, my monitors are only 1920 x 1080 and therefore I can't tell you whether this is mDP v1.1a or mDP v1.2. But if you aren't looking for what I mentioned above, i.e. ( 2 x 2560 x 1600) monitors setup or (4 x 1920 x 1200) monitors setup, then you should be fine with this adapter. Also, once you go above the 2 monitors limit, you need an "active" adapter to make the third monitor work. This adapter is "active" adapter and was able to meet my needs. Let me know if you have any other questions. Edit: It seems that this adapter will only support upto 1920x1200 (WUXGA). So as long as you have 4 or less monitors, you will be able to use this adapter for your mDP v1.2

Instead of plugging in a monitor to each of the different ports, you might be able to daisy-chain your monitors through the DisplayPort. Your monitors will have to support DP 1.2.

Yes, your gpu supports dual link dvi, which is the cable that comes in the monitors box.

Yes the monitor you listed has a display port 1.2 input and so does the GPU.

As long as the device in question has the feature set enabled by the manufacturer, HDMI video and sound output are possible from a Displayport. I confirmed this with Sapphire Customer Service about an ATI based 5570 video card I purchased with the Displayport. I like the flexibility of options DP gives. It can do everything HDMI can do, and more. It allows for much longer cable runs without degradation of signal, and it also allows you to hook the single cable to multiple monitors for a variety of configurations. You used to be limited to dual ports on most cards. 2xDVI is usually the standard, but with DP, you can hook up more than that using the single cable. For these reasons, I disagree with SH when he refers to Dell's decision to utilize the DP crap. Honestly, any technology is superior that can perform the same tasks as it's competition -in addition to it's own feature set.

For VGA I used the StarTech DP2VGA2 and for DVI I used the MDP2DVIS. I now use 6x Asus PB238 monitors, native displayport and I'm using MonoPrice mini-displayport to displayport cables with no adapters at all. All methods work similarly, although with native displayport I can send audio to each monitor as well.

You would need a video card with a Thunderbolt output or a converter. Rest assured the DP port is output only, and you cannot connect it to a PC via DisplayPort.

All indications are that yes, this monitor works with the Display port (1.2) input BUT I have been reading in the Dell forums that these monitors may have a bug from dell manufacturing. While using display port 1.1 all seems find but when trying to daisy chain displays and enable display port 1.2, the monitors become undetectable. Here is the rub, I am NOT using display port, I am using DVI cables supplied by dell and I get the same issue where intermittently a monitor(s) disappear and just can not be detected until the dvi cable(s) are removed from said monitor(s) and replaced - This is terrible. Finally the monitor in question just died and will not power on. I now have to send the monitor to dell to be fixed. Finally, I switched back to one of my older 22" LED monitors to use with the second working 27" Dell and now IT is exhibiting the same behavior - God help me.... In sum, Is the monitor worth it? OH My, yes it is! It looks Fantastic! BUT make sure your purchase some luck and patience because it looks like there are firmware issues on these monitors and the fixes are slow in coming and may require that the third party video card developers may need to tweak their drivers to fully work with these monitors. In the development/manufacturing world this would be considered as a debacle and now I am in the middle of it. Sheesh...

Not sure about your Video card. I am using this APU with a 2GB Radeon HD 6570 in a crossfireX configuration. I would suggest that you go to the AMD site and look for your answer on their forums or ask if you do not find it there.

Per AMD's Specs for HD 6450 and XFX's Spec for this model itself it is a Dual Link DVI Port. Max Res via HDMI/DVI-DL = 2560 x 1600

None whatsoever. The important thing to remember is to use a DVI-D cable on the correct port of your video card. I have a GTX780 and there are two DVI ports so I had to research a bit.

The info on how to set it up should be here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/search/faq/154 more FAQ here: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/MultimonitorFAQ.aspx On AMD's page for the 7750 it says it can do "Up to 6 displays supported with DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport": AMD Eyefinity multi-display technology: To enable more than two displays, additional panels with native DisplayPort connectors, and/or DisplayPort compliant active adapters to convert your monitor's native input to your cards DisplayPort or Mini-DisplayPort connector(s), are required. Support for six simultaneous displays may require complementary products compatible with DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport. Maximum number of configured displays may vary - check with your component or system manufacturer for specific model capabilities and supported technologies.

the hub will work for that if and only if your source device (your graphics card) supports DisplayPort 1.2. If is supports that you should be good, otherwise I think it will be a nope. If your source device has a mini-displayport connection it is 1.2 as it introduced mini-displayport... if it is a normal displayport connection on the source device you will need to look up the manufacturer and see if it is 1.2 or not.

Sorry, another dumb question: How do you check if your graphics card can support the native resolution of the monitor? I have a Dell with NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200.

I don't think so. I think that model uses a mini-dvi, not a mini-displayport.
