Connect external displays

You can connect up to four external displays to the Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports and HDMI port on your computer.

The number of displays supported depends on the following:
  • Whether you are using integrated graphics or discrete graphics.
  • If the internal display is enabled or disabled.
  • Your docking station may also limit the number of supported external displays. Check the documentation that came with your docking station.

The following table summarizes the number of supported external displays:
