Hello, I recently purchased my first gaming laptop and I’m new to many of its features including monitor capabilities.
I own an Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 (phn16-71-73lt ) and I had a few questions regarding display connections.
-Assuming the monitor I choose supports it, which of these ports can I use to plug into a monitor?
-Will these ports all give me the same results, or is 1 superior over another?
-What are my options if I want to connect 2 monitors to the laptop? (Excluding the laptop screen)
Hopefully the following information about the ports is sufficient enough, but if not, please refer to the model number near the top of the post. Thank you in advance!
