what is the connector type from monitor 1 to 2 to 3 to 4. Not all monitors have DP or HDMI

Only DP can be daisy chained.
If your monitor has HDMI , you will need DP to 4 HDMI adapter.

Does it all depend on the video card that comes in the machine?

Vaporware.. if your monitor isn't DP 1.2 no adapter or MST hubs will help.

Let me know when you try it. Not all monitors have HDMI, DP in and out. As you should know USFF does not work for everyone, neither does SFF. Limited to no expand path...

I needed multi monitor set-up with as less cable as possible and the "old" box computer on the floor with the web of cables was not for me.
Depending on your need , you can be still stuck in the past and need a big box computer and a crt monitor.

little computers are like toys. Like I said, daisy chain 4 monitors and let us know the results. Don't forget to include the price for monitors with DP in/out. Run something more than games and trading. Try video editing, CAD/CAM and 3D modeling, report results. I have never seen USFF in professional office.
