Hi, I was wondering if my laptop could be used for daisy chaining (MST multiple stream transport), so i can use multiple monitors via my minidisplay port in my laptop?

i want to use this for my flight simulator. My laptop also has HDMI which i use for the big screen, my other 2 smaller monitors (27 inch) both are the same and have displayport 1.2 input.

 

also, how many monitors can i use with my videocard?

 

Specs: 

I7 7700HQ, 16GB, 128GB SSD, 1TB HDD, Nvidia GTX 1050

@SamiKhalloufi,

 

I reviewed your post and I understand that you want to know whether you can connect multiple monitors to the computer.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

Yes, you can connect an MST hub to the mini display port and connect multiple monitors however, HP doesn’t recommend using that.

 

The Nvidia GTX 1050 graphics card supports up to 4 monitors. You could connect multiple monitors to single DisplayPort output

 

I hope that answers your question and you have a great day!
