[SOLVED] 2080 ti monitor support: Can I run a 4k monitor (desktop) and 3-1440 monitors (racing sim) together?

Thinking the three 1440s will use display ports and the 4k will use the hdmi connection. Any problems with this configuration before I jump in?

What will be your 4k monitor?
It is not clear to me if you can run at 60hz with hdmi, the rtx2080ti cards have hdmi 2.0

I use a 4k monitor and found that I had to use a dp connection to run 4k resolution at 60hz.
This particular pc uses a GTX750ti to do the job.
You might consider a similar second graphics card for the 4k monitor, leaving the 3 dp connectors for the 1440P monitors.
Slight correction, I'd probably need to run one of the displayports to the 4k and the hdmi to one of the 1440s?

lol, how do I hook all this up? Do I need to "split" a displayport for the triples?

TY for following up...

4k monitor - Acer XB273K
1440 monitors - Dell S3220DGF

Looking at the HDMI 2 spec, it looks like it will support 1440p 144hz. Given that, I'm thinking I run 1 displayport to the 4k on the desktop and 2 display ports and 1 hdmi to the racing monitors.
 
For clarity, I would only be gaming on either the 4k or the triples at a given time. Not all 4.
That puts a different perspective on things.
You definitely want to use DP for the 4k monitor if you will play games on it, and you will need a very strong graphics card for gaming on 4k.

How will you organize your desktop?
Have you considered using the 4k in the center and two side monitors for racing?
