depending on how nice the IT staff at work is, and how much you work from home, ask them if you can borrow a HP type c dock from work to connect your displays.

 

if not that, my bet would probably be on "sort by price cheapest TB dock with a HDMI or DP port". to connect the second monitor.

Hello there,

 

I'm seeing if it's at all possible to connect two displays i already own to my work laptop that has a single HDMI port and multiple USB3.1 type -c with thunderbolt support.

 

Laptop: HP EliteBook 840 G7 Notebook https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06680927 

 

Monitors: 

ROG SWIFT PG349Q https://rog.asus.com/au/monitors/32-to-34-inches/rog-swift-pg349q-model/spec/

has 1 display port and 1 HDMI

 

ASUS VE248H https://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=16558&cPath=1087

has 1 HDMI and 1 DVI port

 

 

open to upgrading secondary 24in monitor if it means i can have both monitors connected to my main PC and work laptop at same time. Just trying to see what my options are

any help is appreciated.

+1. OP also has option to buy thunderbolt based dock for a cleaner run and easier transfer between mobile and desktop usage if they want to.
