Vostro 3020, connect two P2422?
I bought two (2) Dell P2422 monitors with the intent of having dual monitors connected to a Vostro 3020 Tower Desktop.
Apparently, my Dell P2422 monitors do not support: "DisplayPort Multi-Stream Transport (MST).". I read every mind-boggling tech article and ambiguous how-to monitor manuals until my cataracts gave out. And I still don't have a clue what cables I need and where they go. Can someone familiar with the video connections on the Dell P2422 monitor and Vostro 3020 Tower Desktop, please tell me exactly how to daisy-chain connect my specific equipment? I'm hoping to use my new monitors before I kick the bucket.
Thank you in advance for understanding.

There are two video connector ports in the back of Vostro 3020. See picture below, HDMI #2 and DP #3.
There also are HDMI #3 and DP #5 ports on the P2422 monitor, see picture below.
Simply connecting Vostro HDMI #2 to HDMI #3 on monitor 1, then connecting Vostro DP #3 to DP #5 on monitor 2.
