The specs of your machine is

If you wish to connect 2 external monitors (only), you can use


Monitor 1: HDMI direct cable,

Monitor 2: Using a Displaylink Certified USB-A to HDMI adapter such as

 

                      USB to HDMI Adapter

Since HDMI/DVI uses digital signals and VGA uses analog signals that why you need a proper converter. You have few monitors Can you use monitors with HDMI or DVI and ignore VGA ? That will make life easier.
