I aim to move all my extra monitors to the onboard video. For instance, the z490 Vision D offers one HDMI, one DisplayPort, and two USB C ports. Connecting four monitors directly to the iGPU doesn’t seem feasible? The manual or online sources only note the chipset limitation, suggesting it’s not possible. Concerning the two Thunderbolt 3 ports, can a USB C connection work with an HDMI adapter? The manual mentions DisplayPort output but doesn’t specify compatibility for USB C to HDMI adapters.

The i-gpu is limited to controlling just three monitors, unfortunately.

You can execute DP MST, which should function if your display and graphics support it and you have the necessary setup. Updated September 19, 2020 by TofuHaroto – forgot something.
