Hi MacRumors,

I am looking for a solution where I am able to easily swap and connect my dual monitors between both a PC setup and Macbook setup. I currently use my PC desktop to game on and I am looking to utilize the dual monitors on my MacBook for other uses.

I currently have a setup on my windows desktop that goes:

PC Display Port > U2715 DP > U2713HM DP (daisy chained)

Initially, I was going to buy an adapter in hope that i can do a setup like:

Macbook Pro USB-C > U2715 DP > U2713HM DP (daisy chained) but I've read online that it doesn't work due to some DisplayPort MST restrictions on the macbook pro (?)

What solutions can do to utilize my dual monitor setup that can (fairly easily) swap between my PC and Macbook Pro? My Macbook Pro is a non-touchbar model 13" 2017 model and I need to have a port available to charge it aswell.

Cheers
