I just bought (2) Asus VE228h monitors with DVI/VGA/HDMI inputs.

I want to use my laptop screen and both of the new monitors.
What is the minimum equipment I should be using?
Thanks in advance.

Hi - That combo of Dell laptop and dock will only support 2 directly attached apparently (as you've probably already experienced):

But you can continue to add additional monitors via DisplayLink-based USB devices.

Given that the ASUS VE228H monitors are 1920x1080 and the laptop is a USB 2.0 system, you have a lot of options.

We'd recommend our USB 3.0 model so it can outlive your current laptop:

You just need one of these for the 3rd monitor (connect the other direct to the system)
