So i have a ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC Edition, 4GB GDDR5 DisplayPort 128-bit PCI-E Graphic Card

And I want to use two monitors
How would i do that?
Would I connect one through the HDMI and the other monitor through display port or am i only allowed to use one at a time.

What can I do?

Just use one of the other ports, then set it up in windows, I think it's called setting up multiple displays. So if you have one connected thru hdmi, you can use display port, of another hdmi, I don't know what ports you have. It's really easy to set up.

Yes, just connect them both to the card. Go to Control Panel > Hardware > Display Settings. you want to set the multiple displays setting to "Extended" or "Extend these displays"

Hello... it is very easy... typically you can use only two outputs on the lower tier NVidia model... and you need the proper cable and no adaptors... DVI, hdmi, and display port are typically your options.

Right click your OS desktop-screen resolution this is your master OS single and multi-display option page.

You are basically adding "real-estate" of the second monitor display area to the existing OS display area... you can add it to the top-right-left-bottom and in landscape or portrait modes too. You can use the graphics display above to move and custom position for screen#2 ...and correct mouse movements between the screens.
