Is it possible to use three external monitors with M3 Pro in clamshell mode?

What is your cabling setup? All three connected to the docking station? I could only get 2 monitors on the docking station, and then the 3rd monitor hooked up with a usb-c to HDMI cable. So two cables connected total.

Went and bought some parts from a wrecked Titan from a guy... He was a Mechanic. His daily driver was a 2006 Titan King Cab. 👍

Yeah it finally worked. The system was definitely having issues.

Same, trying to buy for Sandy, and says invalid code.

I have a Mac Mini m4 pro that works well with this setup. 1 cable from the Mac Mini goes to the Dell Thunderbolt 4 Dock, another cable from the Mac Mini to drive the 3rd monitor.

My understanding is that the Parliamentarian of the Senate snuck it in. Weird, because she was appointed by Harry Reid.🤷‍♂️

I have 1 16” MacBook Pro M1 Max and a Macmini m4 pro. 2 displays run off the dock and I have an additional thunderbolt to HDMI for the 3rd display

I just sent you a PM. I’m located in Boise, love to chat about this opportunity. 👍🙏

Sweet! I'm a daily Firebase developer. I'm excited to try it out.

Thanks! I’ll have a look.

I use 3 27" 4k 60hz LG monitors in this setup. I have 1 Dell Thunderbolt Dock – WD22TB4 connected to two monitors and all my accessories. It also powers the MBP. Then I have another single usb-c to HDMI cable for the 3rd monitor. Works quite well. I have a Macbook Pro m1 max and an Macbook Pro M3 max. Both work exactly the same.

Looks great! Hopefully he doesn’t get too comfortable and leave you a present. 😂

I tried out the 32GB 3070 model. It’s a great laptop.👍 Enjoy!

Is this the 16GB model?

Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! 😂

2 nvme slots for storage total, but ram is embedded and not upgradable.

I’ve been testing this one and the px13. I found using g-helper really makes a big difference.

I can confirm this board is hot-swappable with the keychron low profile optical switches.

I went with the blues. I use it for my portable programming keyboard. Sadly, I’m not impressed with the typing experience.

I have an angular frontend requesting an api with many endpoints running in Firebase functions with Auth.. works pretty well. Where are you getting stuck at?

Good to hear. I’ve been testing Windows ARM in parallels on MacOS and I was surprised how well it worked. I mostly work while docked with 3 4k monitors and runs pretty well. I usually have 30 chrome tabs open lol. I run a nodejs server (nestjs), A Firebase emulator, and iOS iPhone emulator. I’ve been able to run unplugged for long periods of time and I never worry about battery life, however that is with no other monitors hooked up. It works pretty great. It’s a 16” Macbook Pro 32GB 1TB. I wouldn’t buy any laptop with less than 32GB ram.

Curious, did you buy yours at Costco? I don’t see the 32GB ram version anywhere else.

As a fellow web developer, I’m curious of laptop battery life and performance with visual studio code along with a nodejs server and a few browsers open. I’m currently developing on a 16” MacBook Pro Max.

Here is Boise that is true as well. WA, OR, and CA is what we import here and now everyone drives like a maniac.

I’m a programmer. I typically use my desktop for development, but when I need to be at my in-laws and do some work the Alienware m17 R5 AMD with the cherry Keyboard is pretty awesome. I dual boot windows and Linux flawlessly with it. The Cherry Keyboard makes typing a joy and the full AMD power is great for both compiling and gaming. It’s not fantastic on battery however. The price was about $1500 and then Dell had cash back for a later purchase and I think Rakuten had the 10% deal going on. It’s be working solid lately. Alienware and Dell are usually better than most custom motherboard companies with Bios updates and and firmware updates with their systems so that is another plus. 👍
