Hi,
I am currently using the older USB-DVI adapter that works with USB 2.
I want to get a new Lenovo laptop that has USB 3.
However, I currently use a lenovo docking station that gives me a displayport, and DVI for 2 of the monitors. I use the USB to DVI adapter for the 3rd monitor.

With the new laptop, if I buy the Lenovo USB 3.0 dock which has 2 DVI outputs, how would I get the 3rd monitor to work using a new USB 3 adapter? Is it even possible? Do I connect it to the Lenovo dock, or directly to the laptop?

The older 2.0 adapters claim to be able to have up to 6 external monitors.

Basically, what are my options?

One other question:

Is the supported 2048x1152 for each monitor, or combined between the 2?
Could I use something like this with my first question?
