    What do you think of the BenQ PD2705Q? USB-C, Daisy-chainable, within budget?

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor compatibility with PCS laptop

    Took my laptop into WEX today - they didn't have the BenQ 32" to try out, but I did connect the lappy to a high end 27" 4k BenQ, and the 27" 2K Asus you suggested, And you were absolutely right, had no issues running 4k via DP and 2k via HDMI. I also looked into the out of stock ASUS ProArt...

    It's the scaled down 2070 mobile version, if that makes a marked difference?

    The 32" Benq is out of stock at WEX. I suppose I could grab it from Amazon for a few quid more and always return it if it's struggling. Decisions...I'm crap at them!

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor compatibility with PCS laptop

    I mentioned in my query that I'd been using it mainly for video and audio editing, and didn't use it for gaming, but that was his response. I don't even have any mates who have a 4K that I could borrow just to test out. Most of them probably have CRTs 😁 I could contact my local WEX and ask if...

    Thanks @SpyderTracks Had a reply from PCS Tech Support. So looks like I'm capped at 1440 to be on the safe side.. Also looking at a single ultrawide (non-curved)?

    Just out of interest, presuming 4k was an option for this chassis, and I went for a single 4k monitor, which would you recommend (£400-£500)

    I'm the definition of "hobbyist". £500 tops for the pair?

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor compatibility with PCS laptop

    Also, I'm not using it for gaming, mainly video editing and audio sequencing work. So purely going for 1440 for more screen real estate. From my specs, should it be able to run 2 x 1440s?

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor compatibility with PCS laptop

    That's really useful, thank you. The laptop has 1 x HDMI, 1 x Mini DP, 1 x DP via USB-C So my best bet is Mini DP to DP, and USB-C to DP? Would that enable me to run both Iiyama monitors at 100Hz? (excuse my dimness!)

    USB-C port does indeed have display (tested with a spare monitor. I used a USB-C hub with an HDMI adapter, but was thinking of getting one of these to run directly from the USB slot. Hopefully that would give the full advertised refresh rate.

    My laptop bought from here a couple of years ago has the specification below. I want to run 2 monitors, one via the HDMI port and another connected to a USB to HDMI adaptor. What would be the max specced monitors that I could use with this? i was hoping to go for 2 x AOC Q27G2E, 27" (2560 x...
