Then even with a newest M3 model apples somehow assumes that external monitors with less resolution then 6k don't exist hence anything but MAX models only supports 2 external monitors even if they are all 1080p. Through to be fair 3+ external monitor setups aren't that common with larger/higher resolution monitors.
And issues with dasy chaining monitors seem somewhat common, but that's hearsay so maybe not true.
Daisy chaining monitors via thunderbolt has always had problems since it came out. Some monitors just don’t play nice with each other.
My Thinkpad from 2013 supports 3 external displays.
I tried to get 3 monitors working on a work Mac with a new triple DisplayPort dock and had a terrible time, I went back to my Linux desktop since I can easily get smooth 165hz native performance on three monitors
I don't believe that triple DisplayPort works well with mac. I believe two is the limit.
