Hello

I was wondering if it is possible to extend my laptop screen to 2 extra monitors, I searched on google but the information I found was pretty outdated and not successful so I want to ask it here.

I have a Lenovo y50-70 i7 nvidia 860m gtx.
I have 1 HDMI 2USB 3.0 and 1USB 2.0.

Is it possible to split HDMI into 2*HDMI? Or some external video card USB to HDMI?

Any possibility whatever the cost is greatly appreciated.

Greetings
 
There are devices out there that let you run two displays from 1 hdmi port.
one type of device merely clones the two displays (same exact thing on both displays)
The other device type lets you run a pair of monitors as an extended display. They present one large display to the GPU so you cant maximize a program without it filling both screens but you can do the half screen trick pretty well to run 2 apps side by side.
