RX 480 - 4 monitors 1080p

Hi all.

 

I'm looking at possibly getting the RX 480 8GB upgrading from a MSI R9 270x 2GB OC gaming edition.

 

What I want to know, how do I connect my screens?

I'm using a gts 250 to get the 4th screen working atm.

 

All 3 PC monitors are DVI or VGA, And the  4th screen/TV is  HDMI.

 

The main monitor is using an active dp to DVI adaptor. 

 

So what I'm asking is how can I get all my screens connected to the RX 480? 

With preferably detailed instructions?

 

Thanks

You'll use the same connections as you use currently,

most aftermarket RX480 will come with one DVI output, so you'll be adding another active DP adapter

you can also use your motherboards DVI out if you have an iGPU

CPU: Intel i7 5820K @ 4.20 GHz | MotherboardMSI X99S SLI PLUS | RAM: Corsair LPX 16GB DDR4 @ 2666MHz | GPU: Sapphire R9 Fury (x2 CrossFire)

And cpu. 

 

So  3 HDMI to DVI?  No converters for that? Just standard adaptors? Or direct HDMI to DVI?

 

And one DP to DVI active adaptor? Or? 

 

I obviously want to rid the gts 250 hah!

Anyone?  So I can connect 4 screens directly with my set up: 3 HDMI to DVI and one DP to HDMI?
