Why is it with AMD's Eyefinity you can use a combination of up to two DVI and/or HDMI cables and be forced to use a DisplayPort cable for a third display, what's the reasoning behind this? Is there something that causes problems if you were able to use two DVI cables and an HDMI?

 

Sorry if this has been posted, looked and only found similar topics if this was possible, this is one more for the reasoning behind it.

This helpful chart might be helpful.

 

Mind you that it's only the OUTPUTS that need to be arranged like that, you can use an adapter for a third DVI monitor for example.

Case: Meatbag, humanoid - APU: Human Brain version 1.53 (stock clock) - Storage: 100TB SND (Squishy Neuron Drive) - PSU: a combined 500W of Mitochondrial cells - Optical Drives: 2 Oculi, with corrective lenses.
