USB32DVIPRO

You NEED the USB3 DisplayLink version for an external monitor display with no lags running at 1080p60fps. I had the older USB2 DisplayLink and it was so laggy, so with this upgrade, all that is gone. Don't wait, it's worth the money. My default setup was limited to 2 external monitors and the laptop screen. But I really wanted 3 external monitors and laptop display for a total of 4 displays and this new setup just works... on my Chromebook Acer Spin 713, no drivers/software to load, and no lag even with HD video. This is absolutely the best device ever. Also, since the DisplayLink functions as its own video card, you might be able to add even more monitors if you wish... but make sure you have a powerful laptop/computer to push out the graphics. I highly recommend this device for anyone wanting to add extra external monitors especially on Chromebooks.

First, before you buy, make sure that your current computer does not already support dual monitors. If you have a display port (DP) it might support dual monitor connections and all you have to do is get an adapter. Also, if you have both a VGA port and a DP port, your computer definitely supports dual monitors and you do not need to purchase this device. The same goes if you have a graphics card that has something like a VGA port and a DVI port. So check your computer first to determine that there is no other way to connect a second monitor before you buy this. You should know that this is a graphics card that connects on a USB port and capabilities are limited even compared to on-board graphics cards found embedded in a computer's mainboard. Over the past couple of years I purchased a few of these for work because our employees keep asking for a dual monitor setup. It works well for things like spreadsheets and documents but if you are looking for a second monitor to play games on, this will not be for you. Finally, note that this will work with Windows 10 but previous versions of this device from Star Tech that I purchased for Windows 7 do not work with Windows 10 and Star Tech does not offer drivers for them. Hopefully, this being USB 3.0 will be supported by future versions of operating systems and Star Tech will produce drivers for them. This is not a plug and play device so before you connect it to your USB port, make sure you download the latest drivers for it from startech.com and install them. Then plug it in.

I wanted to attach two extended displays to my MacBook Air 2015 (running Monterey) and had a terrible time finding a solution until I came across a YouTube video that directed me to this product. One display was already plugged in to the mini-DVI port. I bought this to plug my 2nd monitor (HDMI output) to my laptop's USB port. My monitor has a VGA output too but I decided on the HDMI because it was cheaper with faster shipping. I bought an HDMI cable too. It arrived fast and took me about 15 minutes to set up. I followed the directions and easily downloaded the appropriate driver from the StarTech website. It didn't work immediately even after I rebooted my laptop which made me worry it wasn't going to work at all. I then tried opening up the DisplayLink driver file directly from my applications folder. Once I did that, it prompted me to adjust a security setting giving permission for the adapter to access my computer's video (or something like that). Once I changed the security setting, it immediately worked. The adapter is expensive but I am so happy to finally have two displays!!

I'm using this with a 2016 MacBook Air 13" with 8Gig RAM. It's working really well. Gives me an extra external monitor when at my desk, and is awesome. Lag is so minimal I don't even see it. Still wouldn't try to watch an HD movie through it, but extremely fast none-the-less. Pros: - Inexpensive - Light-weight (easy to take with me) - Simple - just requires an open USB 2 or 3 port (USB 3 is going to perform much better). Cons: - You have to find an download a piece of software ( a driver in for the Pref Pane in MacOS) to make it work. I wasn't aware of that, nor expecting it, so for the first little bit I thought it was defective.

I attempted to use this with a QGeeM Mini Display Port to HDMI converter and 27" Apple Cinema Displays and the image on the screen seem transpired and it had a ghost effect to it when any window was moved as if the monitor had the imaged burned into it temporarily. I've tried several adapters and 4 different Apple Cinema Displays with the same result. I returned this and immediately bought the Plugable dual display dock and it worked absolutely flawlessly both over display port and HDMI even with the QGeeM adapters.

Works great

I went through a few of these to try and extend a 3rd monitor from my HP laptop. None of the USB-C versions worked on it. Not even the expensive docking station for HP! So I tried this USB-A one and I just plugged it in and boom, screen on! Did not create any drag on my system nor any flickering which I have experienced with other laptops with screen extensions. Very satisfied!

Using this with my Macbook Air, I found that it worked perfectly out the box and I didn't even need to download the drivers. I'm only using a 1280x1024 external display - so not driving it too hard, but it works perfectly. My only criticism is it could usefully be smaller and less bulky.

Working fine. If you connect it on USB 3 device it will work on Windows, Linux, Ubuntu 17.10 (Download latest driver from displaylink website). USB 2, currently it working only on Windows. Very good device. I have 3 monitor and my NUC has only 2 video outputs, this will help me to connect 3rd monitor.

I was having a challenge getting three screens in expand mode with my lap top as the main source. This was plug and play! Amazing.

安さに釣られて激安WinTabを買ったのは数ヶ月前。 Surface pro 3よりも出番は多いのですが、８インチの画面は老眼にはつらい。 徐々に行き場を失いつつあったところへ救世主です。 家で同じく遊休在庫になっていたiiyama T2452MTSに繋いで、２３インチの大画面がぬるぬるスクロールするのには感動。 普通にWindows 10 タッチパネル付きデスクトップとして使えます。 勿論、USBスティックPCのほうがきびきびしているかもしれませんが、自分にとってはBestな2in1マシンがこれひとつで完成です。

Read all first. The software is for win7 so it won't install on win10 even if it was upgraded from 7 to 10. BUT, when you plug it in with the monitor attached, win 10 picks it up and shows as 3rd display. I am very happy. Works great.
