Is it possible to run two monitors / extend out to another monitor from a ConceptD7 laptop computer? If so how can it be done?

    Exactly what I needed, thanks. Your ConceptD laptop has an HDMI 2.0 port that can drive one extra monitor and DisplayPort over USB-C that can drive a second. If you need a third then it's best to replace the USB-C to DP with a dock that supports multiple monitors. So you only need an HDMI for one and USB-C to DP for the other.

    Sure, the ConceptD model line is typically more powerful than other lines. They made sure it had plenty of horsepower to satisfy graphics professionals.

    Which ConceptD laptop do you have? The model number should be something like CN7xx-xxx-xxxx...

    Thank you, Billsey! Very much appreciated! We are live streaming a corporate holiday event, and have need of an extra monitor, for use of running 2 software programs and a camera. 
    I was also wondering if the Concept D7 laptop is strong/powerful enough to run all of this? 
    Thank you, again!
