Hello! As the title says, I need a GPU that has at least 3 HDMI Outputs. Caveat is that it needs to be equal or better than a GTX 1060 6GB.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

You can passively convert DisplayPort to HDMI with a cable.

I guess so. Client says they don't trust HDMI - DP converters--those shouldn't have any loss in quality right?

Not that I know of.

Also, I'm not sure if any 1060 6GB or better cards exist with 3 HDMI ports.

Arent Most GPUS switching to DP as a main as it works better for 144hz and up? I know of a lot of monitors/screens dont support over 60hz unless its DP or unless the monitor is specifically configured to have an HDMI port over 60hz

I use a HDMI to DP converter for one of my screens. Works beautifully

Only one I found is this 1650: image.thumb.png.62d93d6f1d6dc81a58ba61b95be09bff.png

 

But the 1650's 33% slower than the current 1060 6GB card we're trying to match.

Yeah personally am a proponent of DP for my personal stuff. Was just looking to see if there are any solutions right off the bat. 

I guess we're going with adapters! Wish me luck convincing the client

No it's all a digital signal so no quality loss what so ever. The whole point of dp port is that it can be adapted to anything without quality loss.

Fun fact: passive DP to HDMI adapters are literally sending HDMI signal out of the DP port and the adapter is just to connect the right pins on the HDMI connector.

 

EDIT: there's also level shifting involved (3.3V -> 5V), but that's essentially passive (but does require a nominal amount of power).

Ah! That's fascinating. Basically bridging the signals from on layout to another.
