You are a life saver!! I have bought multiple different splitters and by far this is the best video I have came across!! Thank you for adding the actual items on as well. Truly saved me from buy the wrong ones like before!!

Awesome Video Mark! Easy to understand. My three monitors were Monitor #1 & Monitor #2/3. After watching your video I was able to correct the issue and set up all Monitor screens independently from each other. Thanks!

Update: The USB adapter is still going strong for me a year and a half later. I have not had any malfunctions and for the most part, it is a plug-and-play device ( Please Note some older laptops may not work with this USB-C Adapter. If this is the case, I would try a USB 3.0 adapter instead ) Overall, this was a great purchase. If you guys have any questions, please reach out.

If i use this for dual monitors what is the highest hertz ill be able to get? because i noticed it says port 1 is 30 hertz and port 2 is 60 hertz so does that mean even if my monitors are 144 hertz ill only be able to get 60 hertz?

I'm hoping you can help me. I'm setting up my "at home" office. I have one Dell 7440 laptop that has 3 x USB 3.0 PORTS and 2 Monitors with HDMI. Can I j I just use go straight to the ports and get an EXTENDED DISPLAY? Thank, Renee

@themorningstar8675 10 ай бұрын

@@reneerheney2537I'm pretty sure you can. I think that's exactly what he's showing in this tutorial video. It shouldn't matter that you have 3 USB ports instead of 2 on your laptop. You can also buy adaptets/converters that have more than just the 2 HDMI monitor ports. The one I bought has 12 ports. 2 HDMI, 4 USBs, USB-C, SD Memory card plug-in and a few others I can't remember off the top of my head. The brand is MCY Multifunctional Converter / 12-Port. A little more than I needed but at least I have the extra ports if I ever need them. 🤷‍♀️

Thank you! I was trying to use an HDMI splitter but having mirroring issues between the two external monitors. I fixed the issue by connecting and HDMI-HDMI cable from the one HDMI port on my laptop to one monitor and using my USB to HDMI adapter to connect my 2nd external monitor. It's klunky to have cables on each side of my laptop, but now I can extend between 3 monitors or disable the laptop display and extend between the two external monitors. Yay!!!

Thank you for your video. I have a laptop and two monitors. The view from the two monitors is identical. In my display settings, I have just 2 screens. I unplugged one of the HDMIs from the splitter and replugged but I still don't have 3 screens as you've shown. What could I possibly be doing wrong or do I need more equipment? My laptop is in the middle of the two screens and I can slide things from one to the other. I just want 3 separate views. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Mark, very nicely done video. This was very informing to watch. Silly question but your link to the dual monitors comes up on amazon as two different model monitors. Is this due to limitations with the laptop video card or just random. Can I simply by two identical monitors? Keep up the nice work.
