hi ! 

I have a laptop HP Pavilion gaming ex2052 ax with RTX 3050. I actually wanted to get full advantage of the usb c port by connecting it to external monitor however when i connect a usb c to hdmi cable i cant connect to the display. 

Does my laptop support the external display on usb c port? Or is this port only for the data transfer? 

What is the work around if i want to use 2 displays and external usb keyboard and mouse al together. Thanks im advance

I think your machine is  HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec2052AX  not HP Pavilion gaming ex2052 ax. Its specs

 

              https://support.hp.com/rs-en/document/c07645164

 

No, it ONLY has 1  SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate port which does NOT support Alt mode nor Power Delivery. You can NOT use it to

  • Charge your machine,
  • Connect to an external monitor with/without hub/dock/adapter

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

 

For more connectivity, please use


                         True Universal Docking Stations

 

Regards.
