Intent with the monitors is everything, Running security cameras in a program 3 monitors shouldn't be an issue because its a single program already processing everything, in which case a usb-c monitor should fit your purpose connecting with a usb to usb-c cord commonly used to charge/connect cell phones, remember to plug in to any of the front usb ports as they are the fastest usb ports on this desktop. USB-A or more commonly usb have developed wo keep with the times over the years otherwise we wouldn't use them still, the front four are usb-a3.1(faster) the four on the back are usb-a2.0(older). 3 monitors for graphic design or animation programs, lets be honest, if this is all you can afford to budget for a PC then just use one or two monitors because lets face it 3 monitors will distract more than help developing your new hobby. 3 monitors for competitive gaming, i recommend a hundred buck mini pc that you never give email accounts, buy things online with and use it on the 3rd monitor as your opponent scouting device. stat track apps or sites for competitive games are usually 3rd party run and operated making them buggy and full of hazards to your pc/account/info or all of the above. Using a mini pc worth less than $100 with nothing but it to lose is better than many other options and when it gets bugged down and starts to slow, system wipe with impunity because you never linked it or put anything on it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You'd need a splitter to take the signal from the HMDI port and route it to two of the monitors, and run the third one off the VGA port.
