Hi everyone,

I’m planning a multi-monitor setup using DisplayLink via USB-C docks on a Windows machine (11/12), and I’d like to optimize performance and reliability. I’ve seen good results with single external displays, but I’m running into mixed behavior once I connect three or more screens through DisplayLink hubs/docks.

Specifically, I’d like to get input on:

Driver settings and versions — Which DisplayLink drivers are most stable right now for multi-display on Windows?

USB-C/Thunderbolt differences — Are there specific considerations when using USB-C vs Thunderbolt ports for DisplayLink?

Performance tuning — Best practices to avoid lag or flicker when driving high-resolution displays (1440p/4K)?

Power delivery coordination — Tips for ensuring the laptop stays charged adequately while driving multiple displays.

Right now I’m using a USB-C DisplayLink dock with 3×1080p monitors, and things work most of the time, but I notice occasional refresh stutter and occasional device disconnects when switching profiles or putting the laptop to sleep and waking it up.

Any recommendations or real-world setups that are rock solid would be appreciated. Thanks!

Emily
