Default Pulling my Hair out with 3 Monitors!

Ok, so this is the deal. I have a 2015 MBP with retina and 3 external (non thunderbolt displays). Frustrated because I currently run 3 monitors on my PC video card (Nvidia GT640 I think) using the DVI, Display port and HDMI connections and cannot seem to get an answer on setting up my mac.

I have 1 23inch Dell Monitor connected through a Display port to thunderbolt, another 23.8 Dell monitor connected through HDMI to thunder bolt and tried another direct connection HDMI to my mac. Of course only two works so I bought a few different HDMI/VGA adapters but coming up short. I see 3.0 USB to DVI etc. but they're like $50 bucks and not sure if that'll even work.

Any help would be great!

Thanks,

Hi,

Yes you can either use USB adapters or you could consider the Dell D3100 docking station that supports 3 independent monitors http://www.displaylink.com/shop/hot_...php#dell-d3100

Thanks,
James

I have Macbook Airs (2010, 2011) and a mac Mac Mini Late 2014: They all work fine with one Monitor directly to the Mac (MBA Displayport/Thunderbolt to HDMI-adapter, or in case of the MacMini direct Hdmi-Hdmi) and two other Monitors using USB 3.0-HDMI Adapters from Nerwertech.

In all setups I am very satisfied with the USB-adapters. Even with the USB 2.0 in the MBa's ist works fine.
