Apple Studio Display Daisy Chaining?

Hi, I have the Late 2021 16" MacBook Pro M1 Max. I'm thinking about getting an Apple Studio Display for FCPX. I'd like to know if I could daisy chain off of it using a USB-C to DisplayPort 1.2 My second display monitor is an ASUS PB278Q (spec's in link below). Currently I have this display connected to my MacBook Pro M1 Max USB-C to DisplayPort 1.2 which works flawlessly. Any help and/or suggestions would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks.

You can't daisy-chain two Apple Studio Displays, but since your computer is not one of the M1 models limited to one display via Thunderbolt, you should be able to connect your ASUS display to one of the USB-C ports on the back of the Studio display using your USB-C adapter.

Can you daisy chain two of the new Mac Studio displays, with a 13-inch MacBook Pro M2 model?

Call Apple asap and ask if you can refuse delivery? Less work.

Unlikely, but no harm asking - Feedback - Displays - Apple

You should be able to plug the Studio display into the second Thunderbolt port on the LG UltraFine 4K.

Thanks Malcom, After some tinkering I was able to get all 3 monitors (Dell, Studio Display, and LG4k ) to come up on my Dell Thunderbolt 4 Dock via MBP and Dell 7550.
