Long, long story short: If you have a 1XXX series Nvidia card and you can only get 1 monitor to work, have tried everything (according to all the guides and recommendations I have come across) like I have, only 1 HDMI port works after boot, the "fix" (for now anyway), is to get a DVI to HDMI adapter (assuming you were trying to have two monitors, both with HDMI connections).
This is going to be a long post about my troubles and the efforts I have tried to fix it on my own. Thank you if you make it through the whole thing.
Since I have been unable to get both of my monitors to work, I thought I would start over and document my entire process from beginning to end. One thing that I noticed is that only, if looking at the back of the video card, only the left most HDMI port works. If I only have 1 monitor plugged in and it is in a different port, it will work up until about the halfway point of macOS booting and then cuts off.
Things I have tried in the past include installing the Lilu and NvidiaGraphicsFixup kexts, AGPUFix app, iMac14,2 SMBIOS and MacPro6,2 SMBIOS, NvidiaWebDriver=true, nvda_drv=1, manually modified SSDT-1.aml from here (but did verify that my video card changed to “GFX1” through IORegistryExplorer), swapping HDMI cables, changing the ports (but Im pretty sure that is useless from my other observation that only the left-most port works), putting the second monitor in the first monitors port just to make sure it works fine (it does and I have dual monitors under Windows 10 with no issue), and pretty much a bunch of random options selected across probably 5 different full wipe/installs.
This is going to be a long post as I am documenting everything I do so that if there is somewhere that I screwed up that was not obvious to me but to someone else, they can, hopefully, point it out. This is my first Hackintosh computer, so please forgive my ignorance on the matter if I make a mistake. I tried my best to follow all instructions and do research before posting this.
My setup:
Display: 2x HP 23es connected through HDMI
MB: Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI
VD: Gigabyte Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB (3x HDMI, 1xDP, 1xDVI)
CPU: Intel i5 Skylake 6500
RAM: 2x 8GB Crucial DDR4 2400 MHz in BANK 0/DIMM1 and BANK 1/DIMM1
WiFi: forget the name, but it is the one and only card TonyMacx86 recommended for instant usage with no tweaking or drivers needed
HDD: WD 160GB Black 2.5” drive inside a USB3 external enclosure connected to a USB 3 port on the computer (I have the Corsair glass case and just don’t feel like taking it apart, moving cables around and hard wiring the drive unless someone says that for reason it has to be connected through SATA to work)
I have not tried unplugging the video card and installing everything first while using the onboard video port for the same reason, just too much of a pain for me to feel like doing that right now.
UNIBEAST SETUP
Downloaded macOS Sierra from Mac App Store
USB drive formatted with GUID, OS X Extended Journaled
Ran UniBeast 7.1.1, selecting UEFI Boot Mode, picking my just formatted 16GB USB 2.0 stick choosing no video options
After UniBeast was done, I copied a folder labeled “Hackintosh Files” to the USB stick. This folder contains: Clover Configurator, Clover_v2.4k_r4061.pkg, KextBeast, Lilu.kext, MultiBeast 9.1.0, NvidiaGraphicsFixup.kext, VoodooHDA-2.8.8.pkg, WebDriver-378.05.05.05f02.pkg

MAC OS INSTALL
Booted from USB stick
Opened Disk Utility
Clicked on the HDD in the sidebar (not the current partition)
Clicked Erase
Name: Hackintosh
Format: Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
Scheme: GUID Partition MAP
Erase
Done
My drive is currently connected through a USB3 external HDD enclosure, but not sure if that matters or not. It is a 2.5” WD 160GB Black drive
Continue, Continue, Agree, (select Hackintosh drive), Continue, wait 18 minutes
FIRST BOOT
Selected UniBeast USB stick to boot from and then selected Hackintosh drive from Clover
Went through initial macOS setup process. At this point, my Gigabyte GTX 1050 Ti is recognized as “Display” with 7MB of RAM, but it does see it as a PCIe device when looking at the System Information -> Graphics page.
Used Terminal to disable GateKeeper, preventing any annoyances it might bring
MULTIBEAST, p1
Because I am following this guide (https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/audio-realtek-alc-applehda-guide.143757/) on getting proper audio support, I am only choosing UEFI and installing just that and no other options so I can have a config.plist and UEFI system built that will allow me to disable SIP through RtVariables
Quick Start
UEFI Boot Mode
BUILD
Reboot to External HDD now that Clover is installed on it
Got circle with slash through it about 60% of the way through the boot, so I reboot to Hackintosh through the USB stick
Ran MultiBeast again but just selecting the Clover boot loader with emulated NVRAM
Used Clover Configurator to change RtVariables/CsrActiveConfig to 0x67.
Rebooted to Clover through HDD and selected Hackintosh drive
Got circle with slash again at about 60 to 65% mark
Rebooted to Clover through USB stick and selected Hackintosh drive
MULTIBEAST, p2
Since Clover + NVRAM was in theory installed along with whatever else it chooses from selecting the UEFI Quick Start, I am only going to be choosing other options.

100 / 200 Series Audio -> Checked (according to the Realtek guide linked above, IOReg -> did not found HDEF, found HDAS, picking option A under Before You Install -> Step 5 -> 3 -> 1)

NVIDIA Web Drivers Boot Flag -> Checked
NVIDIA WEB DRIVERS
After MultiBeast finished, I ran the WebDriver pkg installer, verified that the newly placed menu bar Nvidia option said the Web Driver was selected and rebooted to Clover through the Hackintosh drive and then selected the Hackintosh drive from Clover
Holy ****, I actually didn’t get the circle with slash this time and it booted ok
NVIDIA Driver Manager

Restarting again. Reviewing Clover settings before booting to Hackintosh drive. For audio, the AFGLowPowerState and ResetHDA was unchecked, so I checked both of those.
Audio still doesn’t work and sometimes pops when changing volume level in macOS
CLOVER CONFIGURATOR
changed theme to “embedded” because it looks nicer
Restarted, still no audio except popping when changing volume (only method I am using to test audio). Video card still recognized as GTX 1050 with 4GB of RAM.

Unchecking nvda_drv=1 since the “New method for enabling nvidia web drivers” post says to remove it “if necessary”, whatever that means
Rebooting. Computer still only sees 1 monitor.
And I feel this is more than enough to go ahead and post as is. If I can find that post about making your own SSDT-1.aml file, I may try that again. I have attached the contents of my EFI partition for it to be dissected for those kind enough to go that far.
Edit: So I went ahead and tried the tutorial on modifying the SSDT-1.aml and labeling my video card as GFX1 and choosing MacPro6,1 as the SMBIOS but it still doesn't change the results of only the left-most HDMI port works. My monitors only other port option is VGA which my video card doesn't have.
