I want to buy two monitors for using with my laptop (without using the laptop's screen) My laptop has VGA and HDMI outputs.
1st scenario:
VGA output of laptop -> VGA input of monitor +
HDMI output of laptop -> HDMI input of another monitor. I tested extending screens with this scenario and it worked perfectly.
2nd scenario:
VGA output of laptop -> VGA input of monitor +
HDMI output of laptop -> HDMI input of HDMI2DVI converter -> DVI output of HDMI2DVI converter -> DVI input of monitor.
For the 1st scenario, I have to buy 2 monitors which have HDMI input.
For the 2nd scenario, I can buy 2 monitors which haven't HDMI input (cheaper than 1st scenario, because this type of monitor is cheaper than HDMI monitors).
Does the second scenario work? (extended screens, not mirror/same screen)
