How To Choose Your Triple Monitor For Your Laptop

Since 2020 our work mode has been in constant change. From going to the office every day. Then to not going. Today we do part-time now. Additionally, the different workplaces option there exist as well. Just heading to a coworking is new to many of us. 

If you are like me, who is changing workplaces now and then, plus your workload needs you to have many windows open, consider getting a set of extra monitors.

Your laptop´s requirements.

First and foremost, if you want to connect two extra monitors to your laptop, you need to check how many monitors your GPU supports. Additionally, how many graphics ports (DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, and VGA) exist in your laptop.

DVI 

The acronyms refer to Digital Video Interference. They are color coded with white labels and offer similar video quality as HDMI.

HDMI 

The acronyms stand for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. Thisstandard port connects various video devices.

Display Port

This is the latest digital standard for ports. You can connect monitors and computers with it. 

VGA

The acronyms stand for Video Graphic Array. This is a standard analog port also used to connect monitors and computers. They are color coded as well with blue labels. This is the last option to consider, since the images are fuzzier and less vivid.

Check your graphic card(s).

Now you know the ports your laptop can have, maybe you need to purchase an adaptor. The next thing is to know how many of the ports are there. This will show you if your laptop is physically capable of handling all that graphic power. 

Generally, a laptop has two ports, and very unlikely have three. This means that you need to purchase an extra hardware. Here we will explain what to do if your laptop supports a triple monitor and what to do if it doesn't.

Your laptop supports triple monitors.

Be certain you have all the cables necessary to connect everything. This means that if you have two HDMI ports and one DisplayPort, you need those specific cables.

Next, check which monitor you will connect to which port. Referring to the abovementioned ports, you will connect to two HDMI and one to DisplayPort input.

If you do not have the cables, you can purchase them, or if they do not fit, you can also buy an adapter.

Your laptop doesn´t support triple monitors.

Don't panic; if your laptop doesn't support triple monitors, you have different options in which you can still adapt it.

External multi-display adapter

Easy to install. Plug one of the cables into your USB port and the other into DisplayPort. This will send the video signal from your laptop to your adapter. If you are a gamer, consider this to be priority.

USB to HDM adapter

This is, in my opinion, the easiest and cheapest option. The only counterpart is that you will need to purchase one adapter per additional monitor. However, they are not large, and just plug two into your laptop's USB ports, attach the monitor on the other end, and BOOM, you are ready!

This adapter is not suggested if you are a gamer.

Gamers and triple monitors.

This is a perfect option if you want to do some three-panel gaming. It is highly recommended that you consider the following.

The graphical power your computer has. This is relevant since your laptop will display several images at once with a single motor. Meaning that the GPU has to push

many more pixels.Setting your graphics properly will ensure that you can have a good gaming experience.

Not all games are triple-monitor compatible. You need to set the correct

resolution so the image spans across all the monitors. In other games, you might want to play with as many settings as the game allows.

Getting an identical triple monitor for gaming will give you a better experience, and you will not run into issues with resolution, distortion or color calibration.

Work and triple monitors.

Working with multiple displays will definitely make your life easier. This can be with your workload, presentation, comparing spreadsheets, writing articles, etc.

A larger screen improves productivity by allowing you to access multiple tabs and switch between them without getting confused. This will help you with your organization, showing you your relevant tasks at once. 

Another factor to consider is eyesight. Especially,  if you are over 30 and you are stating to loose some focus. You can make your fonts larger, zoom in one part of you spreadsheet, and save some of those nasty headaches you get after long hours behind the screen.

The ideal monitor.

You may think you have all the information you need. But wait, there is more. You will encounter many different options and sizes of portable monitors. Here is a brief description of our monitors.
