QuestionI would like to run 3 monitors together. Would that work with this system? I have two HP monitors already that I would like to use in addition to the laptop screen. Each of my monitors has a HDMI, DGI and a DVI port on each but I can not daisy chain them.
Asked 7 years ago by SamW.
- Answer You could run only one additional monitor without having to use items like USB adapters. But each monitor puts a strain on the GPU, I would not recommend running more than the built in display and one other monitor. You would likely get very low frame even running just those. I would look into a desktop computer to get the best experience.
