Yes, you can connect two monitors to this system.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I just plugged my third BenQ GL2706PG monitor to the Lenovo ideaCentre 510-A VGA port using a VGA to DisplayPort cable. The other two monitors are connected with a standard HDMI cable and a USB to DVI cable. My Windows 10 Display Settings recognized that I had a third monitor, assigned it as #1 with much lower resolution of course. On this monitor I changed it to the Display Port input mode, but nothing was transmitted to the screen, even though all three displays were set to Extend These Displays. I did not try to make the VGA the Main Display, so I don't know if that would make any difference. My conclusion is that I am limited to two monitors until my graphics card arrives. I hope the 180 watt power supply can handle the addition. The graphics card requires only 25 watts, it is EVGA GT 710 2GB DDR3 64bit Single Slot, Low Profile 02G-P3-2713-KR.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The ideacentre 510a will only support hdmi or vga. If you plug vga in with hdmi active - vga becomes active by default. Unplug the vga connection and hdmi works again.
