    To do what purpose?
    You may also need a power supply upgrade as GPU's suck up a lot of power.

    The workstation can have 3 quad cards attached to it without any additional power.

    So are we to presume this card is for CAD work?
    You're not gaming or anything like that?

    Yes CAD work, no gaming.

    Many cards can have 4 outputs, my old 2060Super had 4 outputs but 3 were HDMI and 1 Display Port so putting
    4k out on each one would not have been possible.  4x 1440P would have worked though.

    My 3080Ti uses 3 Display Ports and 1 HDMI which can handle 4k plus a USB-C port than can also output video.
