Greetings all. I have put together a new build spec below. Please advise the below config allows me to connect 4 monitors directly to the PC. Or do I need to add another connector to make this work. Thanks in advance. Link to the monitors I have: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0C68XNMRW/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_5?smid=A2DGZLQVWWHRQZ&psc=1

Any modern GPU has four video outputs allowing you to connect four monitors.
Regarding your monitor choice though...

I bought 5 monitors from Amazon for around $100 and tried gaming on them.

Again, these prices are all over the place and the links below are for Amazon US not Amazon Canada where I bought the monitors.

Thank you for your response. I'll have a look at the video. So what 24inch gaming monitors do you recommend if the one I shared isn't something I should?!
There are a number of monitor pro's here. Depending on what each monitor is being used for, the suggestion/recommendation will vary.
For that, you might want to reach out in #762988481634369556
Any feedback regarding your spec, this post is the place 😉
🙂
I would also be looking to up your PSU to 1000W for the Overclocked 4090 in your build. 850W is the minimum and it's nice to have headroom.
Interesting observation. I was hoping for 4 HDMIs but does that I mean I need 2 cards?
Why do you need 4 x HDMI? Display Port is the more superior connection and most monitors support it 🙂
if you need HDMI, then you can get connectors or cables that will support that
Wouldn't DP being better than HDMI depend upon the version of HDMI? I thought HDMI 2.1 is far superior than DP... I maybe wrong
