I'm trying to connect two Dell 27" P2719H Monitors to a Macbook Air from 2017 running Catalina 10.15.4. The Macbook Air has an Intel HD Graphics 6000 graphics card. This model also has a Thunderbolt 2.0.
Is this possible to do? So far I've successfully connected one of the monitors to the Macbook using a Dynex HDMI–>Thunderbolt adapter. I've also tried to create a daisy-chain, but it did not work.

However, this a lot you're asking this MacBook Air to do. Remember, there's no discrete GPU as it's integrated into the CPU. Video memory is taken from system memory (up to 1.5GB worth). I wouldn't be surprised if you see a noticeable performance decrease or reduced video capability.
