Hi All!
I'm trying to understand if there is a way to connect two external monitors (I dont want to mirror but to extend the screen) to HP Notebook - 14-cf1599sa? It has one HDMi port (which would work for one external monitor) and has an USB C 3.1 gen 1 port as well - which might be able to support the two monitors (with an usbc->2hdmis adapter).
Can s9meone tell me if that would work (I would avoid buying an adapter and two monitors just to find out it won't work...)
Thanks a lot

Its specs
https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06326583
It only has 1 HDMI port. If you wish to have 2 or more external monitors (and notebook monitor - total 3), please enter your requirement on the following link and it will find for you few USB-A DisplayLink Certified options on market today including some HP products (you can select HP before Search)
True Universal Docking Stations
Regards.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your answer. I'm aware of the specs and aware of the available extensions/docker solutions. My question is if that specific notebook will actually work with those? As mentioned in my original post it has an USB C 3.1 gen 1 port - which (as per the different forums/sites I found) may not be able to serve a docker/extension actually for two monitors.
Do I understand well and what you are saying is that You confirm that I can use an USB extrensions/docker (which on its own supports two screens via two HDMI ports) and it will work with this notebook (so I don't risk of buying one and then finding out that actually it won't work)?
Thanks!

Just forget USB-C port. Please use my link above, you will get one to support 2 monitors. If you wish a cheaper version, you can use
