This one right?

No you don't! You can connect all your 3 Monitors directly via Displayport Cable!

Hum.... if you're running 2 Monitors via DVI connection (or Passive DP-> HDMI/DVI) Adapters you won't be able to use a Passibe DP->HDMI Adapter! I think the Matrix also has the same limit like normal HD7970 with 2 Outputs via TMDS
