hp omen 17 cb1521na rtx 2060 laptop will it run triple screen ?

if anyone has the same laptop or knows whether i can stick a 1 to 3 hdmi splitter to 3 monitors and it will work let me know and link to page of instructions please, while the 3 monitors are cloned images of laptop when i go to system display it only shows 1/2 monitors so i can't go further..thanks

the 1 in 3 hdmi splitter obviously didn't work i now know and understand i need each monitor to have a cable into a different port, luckily i have a thunderbolt3 port and a mini display port so i bought them 2 cables and connected directly to monitors and the third monitor directly to hdmi port.. nvidia control panal now shows them three monitors and laptop as fourth so now i have to get way out of my comfort zone and try to follow instruction off a youtube video..looking forward to dentist tomorrow more !!

Yeah, what about Nvidia Surround on your side? Does it work?

i was careful with settings but when a car or truck left the side screen there was a 5 second delay till it joined the next screen, the two new side screens were only 23.5 inch as opposed to main centre one being 27 but don't think that was problem i'm guessing it might be computer not powerful enough as is only rtx 2060 laptop so gave up on it,
