Hi Toasty,
I GOT IT!!!!
Well at least it seems so, ONE projector is now working again in 3D.
Looooooooong story - short: The problem was hardware!
But check out the long story for your knowledge database
Remember i was telling you about my HDMI kabels, i told you all three are 10 meters long and one of them was like all platinum and cost me 150 euros, the other two hdmi kabels are same length but like only 20 bucks each. YEAAAAAAAH, it does matter at least on that length. The signal gets lost or some shit, dont ask.
But thats not all, i have now 6 dongles of Displayport to HDMI.
Turns out only the very first one that i bought, works with 3D (pretty much by accident) because officialy not even that one is supposed to work since its not AMD certified. So basically i bought the Club 3D active DP to HDMI adapter first, then i purchased two more Club 3D adapters, from the same store but a different modelnumber, but it was supposed to be the same stuff, DP to HDMI, same brand, same price, just different part number.
Then when i wanted to use eyefinity in 120hz, stuff didnt work out, remember? So i thought, okay, maybe the other two are not active - i will buy new adapters on amazon (since my store was out of the one that worked) and make sure it says ACTIVE. I didnt want to order two club3D adapters since maybe they would also send me the new model that didnt work so whats the point, soooooo i ordered 3 STARTECH ACTIVE apaters. I purchased 3 so i wouldnt have any color differences etc.
And it worked, i had 3 projectors run eyefinity in 120hz....
As you can guess by now, there was the problem: 120hz, yes. 3D certified, NO!!! Funny as it may sound, thats definately true!
Today, it came to my mind to try the very first adapter that i purchased and i plugged in the cheap HDMI 1.4 cable... didnt work.
Then i plugged in the expensive cable and IT WORKED.
Then just to try out, i put in the cheap HDMI cabel in to any of the other 5 adapters and that didnt work either.
So, yeah, cable matters when it comes to length and 3D!
Anyway, AMD claims that ACCELL (accell B086B-003B) ACTIVE DisplayPort to HDMI adapters are CERTIFIED and must be used with HD3D. Problem is that they dont ship them outside USA and are sold out everywhere, freakin worldwide. So now i am stuck again. I will try and search for the Club3D Partnumber, maybe i will be able to get the specific Model that works but then i will have to purchase some really high end cables again and hope that if it works on one, it will also work eyefinity..
My theory is also that the certified ACCELL adapters may work with cheaper cables maybe? Maybe there is something to them that makes them better with signal boost or something, since they are certified and there is no specification written towards HDMI cables...
I remember now why i first purchased the extremely overpriced HDMI 3D cable in the first place, it was because i bought a 3D BluRay player and wanted to buy a cheap 1.4HDMI cable with 10meters length and the store clerk looked at me laughing saying that there is no way in hell that 3D would pass thru the cheap cable on that length. So he talked me into buying that highly overpriced cable and i always thought a little bit that he screwed me over since it was a store like a circuit city, so basically nothing where you would expect competent information from. But turns out he was right....
OMG what a long ride... finally i have an answer. You dont understand, i couldnt sleep right the past 8 weeks or so. I had spend so much money on equipment to get a 150inch curced screen to work in 3D and then it didnt work out and i had no answers, nightmare.
So i hope i will get all the hardware right and then it will still be a surprise of wether or not it will work in eyefinity 3D. Because now it worked perfectly fine with one projector BUUUUT in direct 3D mode NOOOOOT in AMD HD3D 1.4 HDMI mode as it is - i believe required to get eyefinity 3D, hence HD3D.
Anyway, gotta go to bed. I will keep you posted.
Thanks for reading - if you did lol.

P.s.: No, AMD support didnt do shit, i got this one on my own.
