    AN515-53 is only the series.
    The last 4 characters indicate the EXACT model.

    On the label attached to the front, the back, the invoice, the device box, etc.

    Your model does not have a VGA output.
    What do you really want to do?

    So currently, the hdmi out is being used by one monitor. I want to connect a second monitor which has vga only but I’m not sure how. Can you recommend any adapters or ways to connect my second monitor?

    In this case, your device already has the standard video output occupied.
    No adapter will work.
    The solution would be to purchase a Dell 6000 Dock.
    But it has no support for the VGA standard.

    @MaClane can you help me out to connect my Acer AN515-51-73C0 to my AOPEN 19CX1Q (version no: 19CX1Q b). I tried an HDMI to VGA converter cable but didn't work.

    Hi, man! Ive been facing this problem for a while but just solved it! So I created an account just to help you too! What you must do is purchase a real converter (HDMI to VGA) (IT MUST BE SPECIFIED THAT ITS FROM HDMI TO VGA, AND IT MUST BE A CONVERTER, NOT ADAPTER!!! the way to differentiate it is seeing that a converter must have a power suply, and an adapter dont!) This is the link to the one I bought and worked: https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/32976152001.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2bra&spm=a2g0o.9042311.0.0.5b0ab90aD0OpU8
