MODERATORS
thank you for your info. seems like searching other docks is the most cost efficient for me. other commenter said that steam deck has a hard limit of 2 external displays, i cant find info if its true or not.
according to some redditor the limits are
one monitor 8K 60Hz | one monitor 4K 120Hz | three monitors 4K 30Hz | three monitors 2K 60Hz
which makes a lot more sense to me than a hard limit. driving displays as far as graphics processors are concerned is just a matter of data bandwidth. so the more pixels you want to drive the fewer monitors you will be able to run
thats pretty generous limit. then im sure at least it wont be a problem from the steamdeck itself
Check my edited comment, I'm pretty certain my limit was wrong.
thank you for your time for do a bit of a research
