connecting to another external monitor

[Notjoyboy]

I have an HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-ec2075AX which has 1 SuperSpeed USB Type-C® 5Gbps signaling rate; 1 SuperSpeed USB Type-A 5Gbps signaling rate; 1 USB 2.0 Type-A (HP Sleep and Charge); 1 HDMI 2.0; 1 RJ-45; 1 AC smart pin; 1 headphone/microphone combo. I was wondering if this port supports the Thunderbolt interface? or only hdmi? I couldn’t find this information in the laptop’s specifications. Any help would be appreciated.

The specs of your machine is

It ONLY has 1 hopeless 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 (some hubs may have builtin chip to support this)

If you wish to connect 2 external monitors (only-total 3), you can use

• Monitor 1: HDMI direct cable,
• Monitor 2: Using a Displaylink Certified USB-A to HDMI adapter such as

Other option: (USB-A dock):   https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c05357751
