3 HDMI Monitors-Require 3 ports

[whizerd]

i have 3 asus hdmi monitors, do they each need their own port on a vid card?

Yes they do, as HDMI does not support Daisy Chaining. That said, I don't think there is any video card out there with 3 HDMI ports, so if you absolutely must use HDMI you'll have to get adapters eg. HDMI to DisplayPort in order to use them.

Your 3 monitors would require 3 ports (1 port per monitor). Are your Asus monitors exclusively HDMI inputs only (no other ports like DisplayPort or DVI)? If they are only HDMIs and you want a video card that has 3x HDMI ports, some Gigabyte GPUs offer such number of HDMI output ports and are available in the market today:

GIGABYTE Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti models has 3x HDMI, 1x DP, and 1x DVI-D:

Gigabyte GTX 1050 Ti G1 GAMING 4G (https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N105TG1-GAMING-4GD#kf)
Gigabyte GTX 1050 Ti WINDFORCE OC 4G (https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N105TWF2OC-4GD#kf)

GIGABYTE AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 and RX Vega 56 models has 3x HDMI, and 3x DP:

Gigabyte RX Vega 64 GAMING OC 8G (https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-RXVEGA64GAMING-OC-8GD#kf)
Gigabyte RX Vega 56 GAMING OC 8G (https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-RXVEGA56GAMING-OC-8GD#kf)

However, if your Asus monitors does in fact have another input port (such as DisplayPort or DVI-D), then, you can pick almost any GPUs having at least 3 output ports (mix of DisplayPort, HDMI, and DVI-D) and just use an adapter to connect the cables from your monitor to such GPU.
