my problem is every time i connect all 3 monitors, dvi monitor always disconnect then reconnect again. like every 2 second connect then disconnect.

THe issue is that you're using a 260x which is basically a Radeon HD 7790. This card can only use 2 monitor that are not DP. The cheapest way to alleviate this is to buy a cheap DP -> VGA adapter. If you are wanting to go DVI form DP, you are going to need an "Active" adapter. Most DP->DVI adapters are passive and you'll be in the same issue you're in now if you buy a passive adapter.

VGA adapters from DP are all active :)
DVI and HDMI can be active or passive
