My computer only has 8 GM of memory so this was taking me to 7.3 out of 8 GB being used, hence the computer being slow.

Is there anything that can be done about this, or is the MacBook Air M2 just not powerful enough to support the 2 monitors?
Do you use the latest version of the OS and this version of the Dispalylink driver?
