Default Eyefinity like setups on GTX 680

Ok, there are 2 x DVI, 1 x HDM, 1 x Disply port on the back. I've got 3 monitors and not using the second dvi. Tried with 2 x DVI and 1 x HDMI at first but tht didn't work either.

What I am after is an eyefinity type gaming setups.

HELP

it may be just me but aren't those cards only supports 2 screens at a time?
like you can use 1 DVI + 1 HDMI or HDMI + Display or Display + DVI?
i could be wrong but that's how i've always understood it

That would really piss me off I had to replace an ASUS DirectCU GTX 680 with two AMD 5870s in order to have a three screen array!!!

tks WD, I'll try it out this way. I was always using the HDMI as a surround, and apparently that's a no no.
