I spend all day on the computer at work and at home , usually with several window open for reference on the same project . my laptop -lrb- Dell e5410 -rrb- only support two monitor through its built-in graphic card and I want a third to avoid all the window switching I do now . I receive the adapter , download and install the latest driver from Startech -lrb- as explain in the package -rrb- , I plugged-in the adapter and connect the cable . 5 or less minute later I have 2048x180 on 3rd monitor . no problem with performance or app error , seem very stable .
