    (1) You can connect any number of monitors using these steps, depending on how many monitors your graphics card supports. As an example, the NVIDIA RTX 3080 supports up to 4 monitors simultaneously.
    (2) For projecting to a laptop screen (5:42), if you notice sluggish performance, try using a hardwired connection via ethernet.
    (3) To use an iPad or Android tablet as your second monitor, you can try Spacedesk: www.spacedesk.net

      Kevin, the best setup I came up with is an ultra wide monitor (34 inch) along with a portrait mode monitor (24 inch) to read long articles. This set up is perfect for a workstation and the size of monitors are bare minimum.

    Hi Kevin, I have a laptop and want to use 2 additional monitors instead of using the laptop screen. I purchased a HDMI splitter and attached the cables from the monitors to the laptop via the splitter. I was able to view all three screens, however, the 2 monitors are duplicated and not extended. I can extend and use the laptop and one of the monitors to view 2 different things (e.g amazon & youtube), but ideally I want to close the laptop and just use the 2 monitors to view different things. At the moment if i close the laptop i can only view one monitor. I have tried lots of tutorials, I just wondered if i actually need a HDMI splitter extender and not just a splitter cable? Any help would be appreciated please. TIA

      If both your laptop and smart TV support casting, you can use that to wirelessly cast from your laptop to the TV. It can be hit or miss in terms of reliability, performance, and compatibility. The easiest way is to plug an HDMI cable into your laptop and the other end into the TV's HDMI port.

    By the title in your video, I assumed you would be demonstrating how to connect two monitors to a PC (or to a laptop).
    You demonstrated how to add a second monitor to your laptop. I was hoping to see how to have a Windows computer feed video to two stand-alone monitors, and be able to use them in such a way that your mouse travels from one monitor to the next monitor.
    Will Windows allow you to use more than one of your computer's display ports, to feed more than one monitor? Or is some type of hardware needed that will take a single output from your PC and split it to have a two-monitor display?
    Thank you.

      If you have multiple display ports and your graphics card supports it, you can connect multiple monitors. For instance, the NVIDIA RTX 3080 supports up to four monitors connected simultaneously. You only need a splitter in the situation that your GPU doesn't support the number of monitors you want to connect to. When splitting, you'll lose some resolution for each signal.

      My friend has a laptop. He does not use his laptop's monitor. He has his laptop connected to an external monitor. He wants to add a second external monitor (side-by-side) and use his laptop's keyboard and mouse to travel between the two monitors, as if it were one ultra-wide monitor.
      I do not know what type of display output ports he has. Assuming he has only 1, can he accomplish his goal? Is that where the "splitter" you referred to comes in?
      If yes, any recommendations?

    I have 3 ASUS VG248 24” 144htz gaming Monitors arranged side by side with a Mount-It! Triple Monitor Mount | Desk Stand with USB and Audio Ports | 3 Counter-Balanced Gas Spring Height Adjustable Arms for three 24 27 30 32 Inch VESA Screens. I have had this setup for 4 years and have been very happy with it. With Windows 10 or 11 it can easily be configured with a couple of minor settings changes, to act as one continuous screen 13” high but 59” across when they are set in a semicircular arrangement, for a true surround effect display. I have gamed with it set up in this fashion, and frankly, I found it a bit disorienting and on occasion cause slight nausea. I typically use each monitor to display something different. The two outer monitors display the Web browser on the left and my email client on the right monitor. While using the center monitor for file viewing or watching movies. I will eventually go to newer monitors with a smaller screen bezel, or perhaps one of the new extra-large curved monitors. After using this setup for 4 years I cannot imagine going back to a single monitor even a very large one.

      Is the display actually turning off or is it just loosing connection from the laptop? If its the latter, it may be the adapter and/or resolution settings. Sometimes, video adapters go bad causing these types of problems or sometimes they try to force a resolution that your monitor doesn't support.

      I personally like ultra wide monitors so you don’t have a split in the middle, but you get used to either way (two monitors or just one very large monitor).

    About the wireless display option, does it consume data from my bandwidth? Or it just uses the same wifi to extend the screen?

    • @KevinStratvert
      @KevinStratvert  2 роки тому +1

      The tech behind it is Miracast, which is basically HDMI over Wi-Fi. It'll consume some of your Wi-Fi capacity, although it all stays internal on your network. There's no external bandwidth consumption from your ISP.

      Sure, as long as your computer has HDMI output. If not, you may be able to use a DisplayPort to HDMI cable/adapter.

      Hi, I have done exactly what you are asking. My Laptop has 1 x HDMI and 1 x USB C. Both of these are used for 2 x displays. Note however that not all USB C outputs on laptops provide video signal. This can be sorted by using a dongle from StarTech. On Windows display settings you can then disable the laptop screen.
