How to Daisy Chain monitors?
In order to Daisy-chain your displays, you would require a few things, which are listed down below:
1. Two or more displays that have Displayport 1.2 ports, at the very least. Monitors that will be acting as the links must have both Displayport input and output ports.
2. Displayport cables. (Recent generations should be preferred, although generations 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 are interchangeable)
USB-C cables can also be used instead of Displayport cables, however HDMI cables don’t support Daisy-chaining.
Note: Daisy-chaining via USB-C cables is supported only on Windows. For macOS, you will require Thunderbolt3 cables in order to daisy-chain, using USB-C only for Daisy-chaining will result in mirrored displays.
Now after getting all the required items, all you need to do is connect your first monitor to the host system and then connect the second monitor to the first one and you keep doing this until all your monitors are connected to one another.
Note: The number of displays you can daisy-chain depends on the power of your graphics card and the type of cables you are using. The more powerful your graphics card (if you require one that doesn’t burn a hole in your pocket then a low profile GPU is the one for you). and Displayport cables are, the more monitors you will be able to Daisy-chain.
The following paragraph can be used for reference:
A Daisy-chained Displayport 1.2 can run four displays at 1080p and two at 2560x1600p. Displayports 1.3 and 1.4, on the other hand, can run displays at 4K resolution, though only two at 60Hz, however if the resolution is brought down to 1080p then the 1.3 and 1.4 generation Displayport cables can run six displays smoothly.
