    It is the same on the 1080 Ti however now the HDMI is first as the card does not include DVI.

    Correct Image and Order.
     
     
    Remember the old days when we knew that the port closest to the MB was the Primary Port.

    Sorry about that,
     
    So moving from top to bottom on the ports shown in your image it goes:
     
    3 - DP
    1 - HDMI
    2 - DP
    4 - DP

    Thought I'd join the party 
     
    From FAQ - Mdecker listed, post #2  (DVI removed)
     
    HDMI > Display Port (middle) > DisplayPort (upper) (nearest the top of the bracket) > DisplayPort (lower, nearest the bottom of the bracket)

    Or Just Update the Manuals they are putting in the Box.
    And the On Line Manual as well and a lot less of a cost.
    Well Most all the On Line Manuals need some TLC.
     
    Odd this his also the First EVGA Graphics Card that Did Not Come with a Case Badge.

    This is just retarded! There's 3 DisplayPorts and the HDMI is priority 1, for?
     
    What's more retarded than that?
     
    Two Cards:
    PCIe Slot 1 = 1080Ti (DisplayPort any connected to 2560x1600 30" monitor)
    PCIe Slot 2 = 780 (DVI ports connected to two older monitors)
     
    System repeatedly ignores and refuses to use the 30" monitor connected to the 1080Ti in the primary PCIe port, always uses the DVI monitors on the 780 which are actually in portrait orientation.
    Frustrating when prior to installing OS, when there's no video driver or when removing old video driver from safe mode and when there is an OS and trying to get into UEFI firmware setup. Always uses the portrait DVI monitors, even with those DVI monitors disconnected, system still refuses to use the 30" connected to the 1080Ti, have to connect the monitor to the 780's DisplayPort. What a nightmare.
     
    There's got to be a utility to set the default port in the video cards UEFI firmware.

    Masking cussing is against the TOS as it is regarded as still cussing, just FYI.
     
    As you your question as to why? The older ports have ALWAYS been prioritized by Nvidia. If you had a card with VGA, DVI, HDMI, and DP, the order would be VGA>DVI>HDMI>DP.
     
    Some motherboards allow you to disable legacy mode, and I've read of one or two people who were able to use their DP monitors as primary afterwards even during POST (there's likely an additional setting or two that has to be changed, which will likely be called something different in the BIOS - call and ask your motherboard manufacturer).

    This is just retarded!

    Maybe you should Submit a Support Ticket over on NVIDIA Website Link

    I would never have Two Monitors or - GPUs connected when installing an OS
     
    Get your primary GPU and Monitor setup working, then shut down install second GPU, boot, get it working / driver
     
    Then connect second monitor, boot into windows, load driver .....

    What about the dual link DVI port, what is its priority? I don't know about _your_ 1080Ti, but mine has one. FTW3 feature?
