A display port hub might be better. You could daisy chain, and still have room for one more monitor if you ever felt the need. 

dose that work because on the amd website it says max display out put 3 screens

If you have 2x DVI, DP, HDMI you should be good.

The OP may be confused because EyeFinity only supports 3+1, with the 4th being independent.

Perhaps you should obtain the appropriate adapter for your needs.

I've never owned an AMD card (or a desktop for that matter) so I may be wrong but there is my 2 cents. :)

Can't use 2x DVI and HDMI at the same time. Use a DisplayPort hub to get a fourth screen running.

no amd only allows you to use DVI HDMI DP
