        Should I connect both with DP?

        Any advantage vs 1 HDMI and 1 DP?

        If you don't take it, it can only good happen.

            You can daisy chain display port for better cable management.

            Education is extremely important.

                  Is there an advantage to display port vs USB-C?

                  "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

                  The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                    Can you daisy chain with USB-C? On my work laptop I had to use a docking station to drive two monitors.

                    I was only joking

                      No. USB, Universal Serial Bus, as the name implies uses the "bus" architecture. So you can attach multiple devices onto the same "bus" but not daisy chaining one device to another.

                        Not necessarily an advantage, just that "display port" is designed to support one thing -- displays, while USB (including USB-C) is designed to support many different things. So if all you want to do is connect displays, maybe display port the specialist can do a better job than USB the generalist.
