Hi all.

Currently running a 2018 Mac mini with a 27" TB display and a BenQ 21.5" (1920x1080) display. I'd like to add another 21.5" display.

Is this possible with the specs of the current Mac mini? Will I need additional adapters or what not to make a third monitor work?

Cheers
 
This is from the tech specs on Apple.com:

Support for the following combination of maximum concurrent display setups:

  • Up to three displays:
  • Two displays with 4096-by-2304 resolution at 60Hz connected via Thunderbolt 3 plus one display with 4096-by-2160 resolution at 60Hz connected via HDMI 2.0

Yes it will run them, connection wise I believe you should be able to use the tb2 daisy chain port on the tb display to run a second DisplayPort monitor.
