I have two monitors connected to DVI ports on the card.  The center is connected via HDMI, however it looks like crap (dull colors).  I've read that there shouldn't be a different in quality bewteen HDMI and DVI.

    The only way to fix it is to use 3 DVI connections. For 3 monitor setups you really need to use 3 of the same connections for it to work properly.

    i had the same problem before i went sli when i had one 680 in surround no matter what monitor i hooked up with hdmi the colors looked all dull and washed out EVGA said i might have a bad hdmi port and to RMA the card but instead i went sli and use all dvi and everything looks good now
