i started to read the fury x manual and am not sure if am reading this correctly but the fury x manual says this

When connecting displays to a DisplayPort connection, the type of adapter and display that you use may determine the number of displays that can be used with your graphics card.

• An active adapter allows a non-DisplayPort display to be connected a DisplayPort connection using DisplayPort signals.
• A passive adapter also allows a non-DisplayPort display to be connected to a DisplayPort connection but using non-DisplayPort signals.
• Transmission of audio and video information between variants of the same connection type (for example, Mini DisplayPort to standard DisplayPort and vice versa) are considered to be native, active connections.

More information on the number and type of displays that can be supported by your graphics card is provided in the following sections.

The way am reading this is that the DP ports can output non-DP signals?.
If so that means it support DisplayPort Dual Mode

another possibility is thunderbolt but i dont think its that
 
Passive and active adapters have been around for ages. Long story short: if you want to use Eyeinfinity you need active adapters.

The Fiji cards all support up to six displays.
2 on DP1 using MST
2 on DP2 using MST
2 on DP3 using MST (includes HDMI next to it)
