Use 2 32" UHD Monitors with Intel Chip Macbook Pro

I have the last Macbook Pro with Intel chip, and currently have 2 external monitors connected via a QGeeM docking station, but the displays lag. Note I don't play games, I just notice a lag when moving windows around the screens. I am not sure if I need a better docking station, or would I be better off getting USBC to HDMI adaptors?

Thanks for any input!

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

MacBook Pro 13" M1 2020 won't run 2 external monitors of the same config i've identified the problem i believe, why two external monitors do not work on the MacBookPro 13" M1 2020. it's your specialised display settings in the control panel. M1 and M2 have this problem. Maybe it can be fixed via an update? I have used multiple connection types, and found a solution via dock and adapter. Two adapters of the same config (usb-c) DO NOT WORK. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

How do I get 2 external monitors to work with M2 chip? I have a Macbook Air with a M2 chip inside. I can get one external monitor to work with my docking station but not the other one. I plugged the second monitor in with the docking station and tried it with a USB-C to HDMI and still nothing... It should not be this hard with how much these products are.

Best way to run two 1440p monitors from MacBook Pro 2020 Hi, I have a MacBook Pro 2020 that I am currently using to run two 27” 1440p 144hz monitors. Right now I am using a Dell Display Link D6000 to run them, but I feel like I am not running them the most efficient way possible, and recently I have notices some lag when using Excel on the monitors. I don’t really care for the Dell Software for the D6000 and I have too many cables, so I’d like to figure out the most efficient way to run my monitors for optimized performance. Ideally I’d like a dock that will have good support In MacOS and run both monitors using display port 1.2 or HDMI 2.0. My MacBook Pro Specs: 2.3GHz quad-core 10th-generation Intel Core i7 processor Intel Iris Plus Graphics 32GB 3733MHz LPDDR4X memory If anyone has any recommendations please let me know. The monitors will mostly be running live stock charts with some light office work/excel work in between. thanks!!

It is always better to connect them directly via USB C to HDMI cables without using a docking station.
