Howdy! I've searched high and low and can't seem to find an option. I'm hoping that you guys can help! I've got a MacBook Pro 16" (2019), and I would love to hook it up to the 3 external monitors that I have in my office. I have found plenty of docking solutions that allow me to use 2 of the monitors but not 3 easily. Has anyone had success with this or know of a solution?

Thanks!

How about a Sonnet eGPU Puck?

Portable, cheaper than a full eGPU, an additional GPU for applications acceleration.

Another vote for an eGPU. I have a Mantiz with a Vega 56 and it works a treat with three screens. Plus is has Ethernet and USB ports so it’s essentially a dock also

I am using two or three displays with the combination of an older Thunderbolt 2 dock connecting to one or two displays and an additional monitor directly connected to another USB-C port on the Mac. I've read some docks do allow three displays with a single cable, such as the Dell D6000, but I believe they will all require the use of DisplayLink, refresh rate will be limited if they are higher resolution displays, and ultimately what I had already worked well.

Does it get noisy?
I use 3 external monitors with an eGPU and do not do heavy lifting. Should I have gone with this tiny and inexpensivee Sonnet eGPU Puck instead?

Hi guys
For what it’s worth - I had the same desire- 3 monitors hooked up to my MBP. After buying countless leads and hubs, I stumbled across an article that suggested the Dell D6000 dock. It arrived today! As we speak I have it hooked up driving 4 monitors (3 dell displays using 2 display port and 1 hdmi) as well as the laptop screen itself working. Content can be seamlessly moved across screens with no obvious lag or inferior resolution. Hope this helps!
