I need a faster cpu chip because it lags. I upgraded Memory to 16HZ.  I use 3 screens and am stock trader. How do I get the 2nd hdmi port to work? Chip? GPU? What are my options??

The specs of your machine is

       https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06693646

 

It has  NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1650 SUPER™ (4 GB GDDR6 dedicated) card which supports multi monitors.

 

         Standard Display Connectors: DP 1.4a, HDMI 2.0b, DL-DVI-D 

 

The second HDMI port on your machine is for iGPU which is disable automatically due to video card above.  You can use all 3 ports above to max 7680x4320@120Hz (total for all 3). 

 

Do your monitors have those ports or only HDMI ? If only HDMI you can connect

 

  • Monitor 1: HDMI to HDMI cable
  • Monitor 2: DP to HDMI cable
  • Monitor 3: DVI to HDMI cable

All 3 cables are direct connect, no need converter.

 

Regards

I have heard that the max chip would be in the Ryzen 3000 series. Ryzen 7 3700x without having to change anything.  If I wanted to go to 5000 series would I have to change the mother board and if so which one. Would it be cheaper to just upgrade to an omen without all the hassle?
