I recently purchased Helios GeForce RTX 3060, PH315-53 and was struggling to output two HDMI displays.
and purchased type c to HDMI adapter but it did not work. after lot of searching i find that this laptop also has one more port which looks like mini dp but i am not sure after another purchase this will also not work. Can someone help in confirming that this port is mini DP used for second monitor display.

    Yes the 4th right side plug is a Mini DisplayPort and yes this is an output for a monitor.

    i purchased a cable and it did not work.
    ordered replacement of the cable thinking cable be faulty but after replacement new also not worked.
    i checked the cable on two laptops still the same issue.

    i just bought acer predator helios 300 ph315-54, facing same thing. Mini Displayport is not working.

    please let me know how to make it work.

    i have tried every possible way to connect external display through mini DP. but not working.

    NVIDIA control panel is not showing any sign of mini DP.

    TYPE C thunderbolt and hdmi is working fine.
