Thanks VioletDragon. What's the easiest way to do that? Can you point me to the best method? (The first few options that come up in search aren't too intuitive.)
change PEGP to GFX0

There is no followup saying if this fixed the problem. I am having similar issues.
I have the 1050 Ti card. I have awesome graphics with a single HDMI connection. But "No Signal" issues when I plug in a second HDMI monitor. I tried using a DVI-D cable to the monitor and the monitor came up but the graphics were degraded (fonts fuzzy and almost unreadable). I do have a DP port on the card that I haven't tried as I don't have a cable.
I am looking for any suggestions. Thanks
I have the Gigabyte Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti and had no issues using a DVI to HDMI adapter. Just because you didn't say, I'm going to ask what could be seen as stupid questions. Did you try changing the resolution (for the low quality issue)? did you try swapping monitors to see if it was the same on both?
For me, the DVI connected monitor became the primary one when I had it plugged in, was that the same for you?
This is the one that I bought if that helps any. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B2HORS6/?tag=tonymacx86com-20
I used a DVI cable straight to the monitor as it has DVI input. I lowered the resolution and it cleared up a little but not enough to be happy with. Both monitors are exactly the same 1440p monitors, brand new. HDMI output to either monitor is good, no resolution issues. The DVI cable is brand new also but I got it at Best Buy and maybe that is my issue. Would you recommend the DVI->HDMI adapter? Should I try a DP->HDMI adapter. I hate to just throw money at it. But I guess a few adapters are small potatoes vs a new video card.
No worries. Thanks for chiming in. Sometimes it is just helpful to bounce ideas off other people. I didn't even think of trying another DVI cable until you mentioned it. I pulled one off another computer, same results.
If yours works, then I have to assume that I have a hardware issue. I think I will order a DP->HDMI adapter. If that doesn't resolve the problem I will have to see if I can return the video card and look for another.
The GTX 1050 and 1050 ti will only output ONE HDMI
Instead of getting a whole new card, just find yourself a DVI to HDMI adapter (or a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter)
Well that's a bummer. I picked this card specifically for the multiple HDMI ports and bought screens specifically with HDMI inputs for this. The card was on back order and I waited a while for it and looked into others as a replacememt, but it was the only one on the supported GPUs list on this sight that was within my price range and had more than 1 HDMI.
Is this just an issue with Hackintosh type machines or does the same issue exist on windows with these?
