I'm thinking of buying two 4-port graphics cards.
I have a simple question actually: will these 2 cards, that allow me to connect 8 monitors to one PC, operate as one, allowing me to use 8 monitors as one?

Do two 4-port graphics card work together to display 8 monitors as one?
Two four port graphics cards, each being able to output to all four ports simultaneously could work. So that is a 'Yes'.
There are a few things which can mess this up though:
No you can't, whatever OS you gonna use.
GT 740 Display Support: Multi Monitor - 3 Displays
The included hardware, even if you have 4 ports, can't handle more than 3 of them. E.g the DVI and HDMI outputs of some cards have the same clock, which is switched by the GPU chip to use one port or the other, but not both.
So, in your case, you'll get a maximum of 6 displays.
Edit :
Seems that it works for this guy but with the 2 Gb version (Edit 2)
You'll then just have to define your monitors setting in the nVidia control panel, if you're using windows.
Just, don't except high framerates, or putting SLI between cards !
I have a 12 monitor setup with
An older driver is available for the 730 (I think 473.x.x) and there is absolutely no conflict with Radeon Adrenalin. I'm running windows 11 profesional. Gaming is not really possible on the NVIDIA controlled monitors, but I'm able to play Myth of Empires and Ark on the Radeon controlled monitors
