Display Port Cable Connected But Xrandr Shows Disconnected

I was using an AMD R9 290 GPU in my main desktop computer. However I've swapped it out for an AMD Radion 7870 (at least I think that's what it is.)
anyway the GPU I've put it my desktop doesn't have a full sized display port receptacle. It does have two mini DP receptacles however. I've got two mini DP to DP coords I've tried both of them with both receptacles on the graphics card and xrandr won't detect that they've been connected.

I'm not really sure what to do to trouble shoot it. The graphics card is supposed to support at least 4 displays (I think). I was using Display Port and the same monitor with my other video card and it worked fine.

I can see my GPU. This is the output.

Yes I have two other monitors that I have connected via HDMI and DVI. But as far as I can remember the card is supposed to support up to 4 displays at the same time.

Hmm I can see on that page that it says that the card doesn't have Display Port. However it also says "*GPU specifications may vary by partner configuration. Please refer to partner websites for GPU specifications." and it does have two mini display port connectors. It's an XFX card.
