precision 3571 4 external monitors

I have a Precision 3571 and see here that it can support 4 external monitors if the internal display is off.

My Precision has one HDMI port and two USB-C ports so that's three monitors.

Anyone know how would I connect the fourth monitor physically to this laptop?

Each of your thunderbolt ports can connect up to two 4K monitors.

@Chino de Oro​ I'm not sure I follow, would I need additional hardware to have two monitors on one thunderbolt port?  I am thinking of the physical connectivity, right now I have one monitor one each thunderbolt only, how might I get two monitors on the same cable?

The Dell specifications describes the maximum displays matrix capability of graphics card, not the total number of video output connection ports.

Besides the HDMI port, your system has thunderbolt 4 ports.  They are capable of DisplayPort Multi-Streaming Technology, which can support multiple displays through the use of daisy chaining or with docking stations setup.

"or with docking stations setup. "

OK so if I get something like this that supports dual 4K @ 60Hz, I can run two monitors off of that, one monitor off of my other Thunderbolt 4 port and the fourth one over my HDMI.  I'm guessing this would give me all four monitors at 4K @ 60Hz?
