Since this unit has an HDMI port and a mini display port will I be able to use two monitors in extended mode?

Yes, of course. Anyway this depends on the GPU, but i read that this laptop has this feauture. Indeed, you could get this info from the msi web page: "(The MSI gs60 Ghost has...) Matrix Display with max 2 external displays to expand the vision for extreme gaming experience or multi tasks". Hope this helps.

Yes you can, though i'd recommend using through mini display port if you just want to link the monitor, unless you want to link to a tv i'd use HDMI. However yes you can have total of two monitors in extended mode

I'm not sure about two monitors - rather not. Single additional monitor works perfect - you will get extended desktop. Though I haven't tried the mDP used only VGA and HDMI. I'd like to add that I'm very happy having such a good machine I haven't seen anything similar on the market. Good luck.

You can get away with two outputs on any mini display port to VGA or DVI adapter that mates your monitors but you will need VISIONTEK ACTIVE ADAPTERS after the initial two outputs. These are available with various output connections and the part number will vary based on the connection type

I do not know, since I use a dedicated cable for my extended monitor, however, I doubt it. This device is a "dumb" device....it does not recognize MAC addresses, nor does it communicate any meaningful information which would allow your computer to differentiate between screens. All of your extended monitors will show the same content. If you want 4 different monitors with independent content you'll need to add additional ports to your box or find a different device to do it.

Yes, easily. You need no special cables or software, just a video card with 2 outputs. If a video card has 2 outputs, the normal drivers will support 2 monitors.

I use it with 2 at that setting with no issues to work or game play, I don't see a problem with it. I looked at the paperwork that came with it, it claims to support 4 displays. The ports are one displayport 1.2, one hdmi, one DVI-I, and one DVI-D.

No, you would need something else to use two monitors at once. This is used for switching between two monitors that are used one at a time.

I have not found this to be possible - only two at a time.I typically do 2 DVI or 1 DVI + HDMI.

It will extend the screen just like any dual-monitor capable video card would. I tried it on mine just to double check!

Yes. I am using this to run two 1920x1200 monitors (on the DVI ports) and a single 3840x2160 monitor (on the HDMI port). HDMI is limited to 30hz at that resolution, but for stuff I do at work 30hz is fine.

Yes you can, however, one of the ports are VGA (analog signal) and the other uses DVI (digital video input).

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it can. I plan to get a third monitor. If you connect two together, I believe only one can output though...

I have two on mine and room for one more. You need a mini display adapter for those other little ports.

MANUFACTURER ANSWER: Thanks for posting your question here! You can only connect one external monitor via one unit of http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0038P1TP4/. If you do not wish to (or cannot) connect the second external monitor via the inbuilt video output port on your laptop for any reason, you would need to get a second unit to connect the additional monitor. Hope the above information helps! If you need any additional information, please do feel free to shoot us an email at support@plugable.com. We are here to help! Thanks!

Yes you can use dual monitors with it. bear in mind that the video card has the correct pin configuration. It is not the standard VGA connection to the computer

It has an HDMI port so you should be able to use dual monitors with a monitor that has an HDMI port.
