2018 Mac Mini Three Displays

Are you able to have three displays on a 2018 Mac Mini 3.0 GHz 6-core i5? I have two 1080p monitors already being use through the HDMI and USB-C outputs. I would like to add a 32 inch 1080p TV and put that above the other displays using another USB-C output.

Thank you for your help.

Mac mini, macOS 11.0

Yes you can have 3 display on the 2018 Mac Mini.

Also note, that you will need to plug one into HDMI, one into USB-C BUS 0 and one into USB-C Bus 1.
