YES... this bothered me for some time and at great expense, meaning I've tried many, this is the only one that works. The key is to get ACTIVE and DisplayPort 1.2 - it seems, that's what finally worked for me. I have two of them and they work flawlessly.
edit: letter
edit 2: I'm sorry, I totally glanced over the fact you are using DVI. I'll leave this here for VGA folks... and hey, maybe a 1.2 DVI that is active will work.

oh really? I like this. Well, currently when I open the AMD settings, it says I have to disconnect one monitor to use the other (but all 3 show up in the settings). SO this active adapter will allow all 3 enabled simultaneously?
I have two of those mini-hdmi slots available on the card. So I need one of these?
