HP Pavilion Gaming 15-dk1037la
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello community, I hope you are well, I am about to buy a dock for my computer, the HP Pavilion Gaming 15-dk1037la, I was looking at the product https://www.startech . com/en-us/cards-adapters/dk30c2dagpd, I spoke with StarTech support, they tell me that this product of theirs, according to the specification of the laptop, if it supports video via USB-C, and I think well, but I want are 2 additional screens via the USB-C port, they tell me that the dock if it supports it, but do not assure me if my laptop supports 2 monitors via USB-C, therefore, I would like you to answer me this question: via usb-c can the laptop accept 2 video outputs? (the dock allows 2), so I would use the 2 of the USB-C + HDMI internal of the laptop (3 total).

 

Thanks.

Ok, thanks for the information and the reply, now I will rephrase the question more specifically...

How many (independent) displays via USB-C is this computer capable of driving?

HP Recommended

If your computer has an Intel processor (I assume at least an i7 if you're using it for gaming), it will take 3 displays max as is. If you have an AMD processor I am not sure what they can/cannot do.
