Hi there !
PC enthusiast with more than nine years of experience.
Upcoming upgrade to a new laptop - DELL 5590 i7-8 gen 16GB RAM
Looking for a way to replace my current configuration:
2 Displays:
- Benq XL2411 (very old 144hz display, uses DUAL-DVI)
- Samsung S24R650F (75hz DisplayPort/HDMI)
Keyboard, mouse, speakers, microphone
Budget is around $100–150$
* Desired outcome includes a clear overview across all three screens or two monitors without the laptop screen
Appreciate any help soon !

The keyboard, mouse, speaker, and mic are controlled using a straightforward USB 4-port hub. For additional screens, this tutorial could be useful:

Hey lvt, thanks for the answers. I watched the video—it shows DP/HDMI, but one of the screens I received is using DUAL-DVI.

Do you have a budget-friendly adapter that suits your needs?

From what you discovered online, it seems adapters are limited to 60Hz, while the DUAL-DVI monitor can reach up to 144Hz.
