If you insist on doing that, you will end up having to deal with the lowest common denominator for all your devices. The most sensible way is not to go down this USB-C pipe dream marketing hype Apple and Intel are feeding you. Without DisplayLink, you cannot get dual external monitors. Next, you need to tackle Apple "clearly" holding back M1 (so M1 Pro and M1 Max look a lot better).What that means is that you essentially have to change your USB-C monitor operating mode to prioritise display (so all USB-A ports via the USB-C link are USB 2.0 only). That means, at USB-C/alt-mode, you need to go down to DP 1.2 to achieve 4K/60Hz. i5-8365u, while the USB-C chipset is technically capable of DP 1.4, the embedded GPU isn't.Furthermore, it doesn't play well with USB-C monitors made for Windows (works, but not perfect, try disconnect and re-connect repeatedly, see how fast you get the display on USB-C showing again).

I managed to get it to work however because the hp Dock had a separate full usb 3.2+dp pass through, so got a separate usbc-dp dongle on the Dock and that did work.
I had the hp thunderbolt Dock, which apparently did support dual 4k, but i think the MONITORS needed to support dp1.3/1.4 too (for hbr3). Need someone with more Apple experience to confirm.Īlso on the dell, it's going to be either very difficult or very expensive. I don't think the M1 supports dual displays outside of a virtual display adapter. For the M1 there is absolutely no solution.
