I have a desktop computer with displayport. I heard it was possible to connect 2 or even 3 monitors to it.

I heard not all displayport monitors can be chained like that. Which specifications do I need to look for?

EDIT: THANK YOU EVERYONE. YOUR INFORMATION HAS PUT ME ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

    You need to have a monitor that supports daisy chaining, so it has an input DP and an output DP. Ive found them quite rare to be honest, I haven’t come across them often.

      My Samsung monitor has it, and is usable for both the DP and USB-C ports. It’s there as it has a notebook docker in it, which can be repurposed to a normal USB hub on desktop.
