I just bought 3 new monitors 2 1080p monitors and 1 4K and am trying to connect them to my 780ti, which has 2 dvi, 1 hdmi and 1 displayport. The new monitors don't have any DVI inputs only hdmi and displayport. Can i daisy chain all 3 over displayport and still get 60hz on my 4k? if i cant what's the best way to connect them? Would it be 1 through hdmi, buy a dvi to hdmi adapter to connect the other one and run the 4K of the display port. 

Thanks :)

use the 2 dvi and 1 dp. the 1dp on the 4k monitor, then buy 2 DVI-DP and use them on the other monitors.

 

I don't think a not 2.0 dp can do 4k 60 while 1080p 60 x2

No, 4K 60Hz will require the whole DisplayPort connection, there isn't enough data bandwidth for more. Use DP for the 4K display and HDMI and a DVI-to-HDMI for the other two.
