I'm looking to connect my MSI Mecha RX6600 GPU to two HDMI monitors. I found a cheap DisplayPort to HDMI adapter that doesn't require a USB for additional power. Will this setup work for me without any issues? My GPU has 3 DisplayPorts and 1 HDMI output, and I'm planning to run one DisplayPort and two HDMI displays, both at 1080p and 100Hz.

It should generally work, but it depends on your monitors and the GPU. Since you're using an MSI RX6600 with 3 DisplayPorts and 1 HDMI, you should be okay. Just be cautious if you're running high resolutions or refresh rates, as some adapters can struggle with those specs.

You might need an active adapter if you want to ensure good performance. Passive adapters like the one you found usually work fine as long as the source supports it, but if you have any issues, consider looking for a quality active one.

If your GPU has dedicated power connectors, you won't need a USB for the adapter to function. Just make sure your power supply is sufficient for all the connections you want to set up!
