3 Input (HDMI,DP and VGA) 27inch monitors required

[JazzFlute]

Looking to purchase 3 of the same 27inch monitors for a 3 monitor set up on a pc, struggling to find any with all 3 inputs 27inch.  Anyone recommend any if they have bought them?  Copilot not helping as it lists the monitors which supposed to have 3 inputs but they don't when looking at the specs.

Cheers, going with this as only £95 each excl. VAT and they swivel too so could put one in portrait mode which may come in handy for viewing documents and positioned at the end which could save space too.

I've got some rather lovely HP Elitedisplay E273q (27" IPS, 1440p, HDMI, DP, VGA) available if you like?  £130 each.

So I bought 3 monitors with 3 Inputs (HDMI-DP-VGA) ASUS VA27DQFS 27" Full HD IPS 100 Hz 1ms Height Adjustable Monitor with Speakers : Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

 

Can only get a combination of 2 monitors extended and never a third, even Duplicate doesn't duplicate to 3. In Display settings their is always one monitor that doesn't "detect" and the image is smaller then the rest but it doesn't "identify"

Also I checked the BIOS as pic attached and it was already enabled.

 

An ASUS H510M-A Motherboard with a 10th Gen processor is supposed to support 3 monitors (Copilot told me)

🎯 Integrated Graphics Capability

• Intel’s integrated graphics (supported by 10th/11th Gen CPUs used on this board) can drive up to three independent displays simultaneously. [thomas-krenn.com], [community.intel.com]

 

PC Details

Stone - BOAMOT-507

Motherboard - ASUS H510M-A

Processor – Intel® Core™ i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz  (10^th Generation Intel processor)

 

Anyone had similar and fixed this issue or any advice welcome.

Does it work any better if you lower the resolution of all the monitors? The total resolution across all monitors might be the issue?

[andy_b]

Unless I read this wrong, for three displays, Displayport & HDMI & VGA isn't an option:

 

 

Which is what I assume you have?

Just read that and who would have thought that you couldn't have that Combo as its the 3 ports on the motherboard 🤷🏻‍♂️ I've ordered a HDMI to DP Adaptor so hopefully I can get a combination to work as below

 

PC to Monitor 1:  DP-DP

PC to Monitor 2:  HDMI to DP Adaptor - DP

PC to Monitor 3:  VGA-VGA

I have three displays in Extend using DisplayPort, HDMI, and VGA. However, they're all running at 1920 x 1080.

Just checked and both Monitors running at 1920 x 1080 (recommended)  I lowered them significantly to see if 3rd monitor would display but still the same issue.  Hopefully the Lead/adaptor I'm buying will fix it.

I have Intel i5-13500 which has the Intel UHD 770 graphics. I'd recommend getting the latest driver from the Intel website.

Mine is Intel® Core™ i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz  (10^th Generation Intel processor) with Intel UHD Graphics 630.

 

Did update Graphics Driver from Windows just before as there was one available but might look tomorrow what the "proper" one from Intel should be.  I usually use the Intel Display Driver Assistant to check which usually pulls the right one down.

[JazzFlute]

Copilot

 

Yes, Intel UHD Graphics 630 (integrated in 8th–10th Gen Intel CPUs like the i7‑10700) supports up to three independent monitors in extended mode, provided:

✅ Conditions:

• Motherboard outputs: You need three physical display connectors (e.g., HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA/DVI) on the motherboard.
• Driver support: Install the latest Intel Graphics driver.
• Resolution limits:
  • HDMI: up to 4096×2160 @ 30 Hz
  • DisplayPort: up to 4096×2304 @ 60 Hz
  • VGA/DVI: lower resolutions (typically 1920×1080)
• Bandwidth: The iGPU can handle three displays simultaneously, but high resolutions may require at least one DisplayPort for smooth performance.

Going by this you are in the first row, you need 2 monitors to be on DP and 1 to be anything else

Not the 2nd row as you dont have built in and not 3rd as no wireless.

Downloaded the latest driver version for Intel UHD Graphics 630 Driver Date: 05/11/2025 and still the same issues.  Can only get a combination of 2 external monitors displaying.  i think the UHD Graphics 630 doesn't support 3 external monitors but only if you have a main display (laptop screen) and then 2 outputs on your laptop which is rare.  I am waiting on a new PC with UHD 770 Graphics like yours and Ill update then to see if it works.  I was just trying to get 3 monitors set up on the UHD 630 to test beforehand but don't think its possible.

I can confirm that my computer with UHD 770 has DisplayPort, HDMI, and VGA outputs and this works with three displays.

Yes i can only do the first row so tried the below and still doesn't work.  I imagine adaptors etc. are not native and wont work but what motherboard with the Intel UHD 630 Graphics has 2 DP outputs? probably none so a bit pointless truing top setup 3 extended monitors.

 

PC to Monitor 1:  DP-DP

PC to Monitor 2:  HDMI to DP - DP

PC to Monitor 3:  VGA-VGA

Great as that's what my set up will be once new PC arrives.  I was just trying to get it setup beforehand on the lesser UHD 630 but this isn't going to work although exactly same 3 outputs on the motherboard as the UHD 770 and most literature saying they are all separate channels so should be possible.

HDMI to DP, is this an adapter? if so is the adapter the PC side not the Monitor side? if its a cable have you checked if its bi-directional?

I thought you couldn't go from HDMI to DP reliably with a standard cable so

be interested to know if this works 🤞

I ordered the wrong lead again and going to wait till i have the new PC now as it should work with newer UHD graphics as earlier post.  I might buy the bi-directional lead soon and test again and if i do ill update this thread.

Job Done and all 3 monitors installed with the UHD 770 graphics with leads what you said 👍
