Bonjour,
Is it possible to configure 3 monitors on an nvidia card gtx 1050ti, one
FHD (1920x1080) or 4k and two other monitors with a standard resolution (1280x1024).
The asus version of this cards has 4 ports: 1 hdmi, 1 dp, 2 dvi

Probably it is possible, but it would be helpful to
have more details, for example which distribution,
version, etc.

I run fedora 27
I read somewhere that nvidia driver for linux has some limitation to use
only 2 monitors... fake news?

I'm not sure, but it is not clear to me which problem
are you having, then.

You're a little conservative... :-)
Which desktop manager? KDE, Gnome, XFCE, ...?
Which graphic card driver? Nvidia or "nouveau" or else?
Anyway, in "Settings->Display" usually it is possible to
configure a multi-monitor setup.
At least on my system, which is using F-27 with XFCE.
I never tried 3 monitors with different resolution, so
I'm not sure about this, but that could be a starting point.
If you've the official Nvidia driver, there should be a
software, "nvidia-settings", which could also help to
achieve your goal.
Ah! I did not buy this card yet... I enquire if what I want to do is possible, if someone had experienced something similar.
Sorry, I've no experience with 3 monitors (and that card,
but this should be less relevant).

I have 4 monitors on a fedora 27 box but with 2 graphics cards, built-in Intel and GeForce add-on, Intel and nouveau drivers respectively.
I run them Zaphod-head style, i.e. independent screens, but before I configured them this way (my own xorg.conf), running startx had them as
one screen (no xorg.conf).
A 3 monitor setup on a graphics cards that supports it should be
possible, emphasis on the should.
if a card has 4 different ports, these ports are "and ports" and not
"or ports", I mean: you can plug as many monitors as the number of
ports... Am I right?
Is there a limitation (due to power supply, resolution... anything
else...)
