    Note on the disclosures here: I had two versions of this video: one with my usual disclosures and another one that I had prepared for Kensington that they use on their properties. Unfortunately I uploaded the wrong version to RUclips. The disclaimers are as follows: This was a paid sponsorship and the sponsor reviewed the content before I uploaded it along with working with me on the topics to be covered.

      2:27 i don't think that's a universal standard yet - manufacturers like to slap on less symbols for some reason - best to check PC specs.
      Like my spec supports PD+DP but only has D symbol next to the port.
      Or if something has evolved in the last 2 years like you said maybe they always support Data at least then they may have omit the Ss symbol

  • @bkaley8974

    You mention a "display port and an HDMI port?" I didn't see you plug those 2 HDMI monitors into which of those docking station ports still using what I assume are 2 different cables connected to the back of the docking station and running to each (similar?) monitor. Simple but you did not explain the docking station has 2 different display out ports. Luckily my docking station has 2 HDMI and 2 DP++ out ports.

    You mentioned the two USB-C on the back do not support video, but you did not mention the one on the front. Does that one support video? I have a Macbook with a single USB-C and a Wacom Cintiq monitor with a USB-C cable. Do you know of any way to connect this pen monitor to my Mac and still keep power connected to my Mac? I have been looking for years and cannot find a solution.

    Hi Guys!,
    I have a laptop Lenovo T450 which has 3 USB traditional SS ports, ehich one of them provides charge, my question is: Is it possible to connect a Dock WD15 (Dell) with a USB-Type C female adapter to attach the cable from the dock and the other side of the adapter has a traditional USB cable to connect to one of my Laptop ports?, i would like to use the LAN, 2x Monitors and Mouse over this Dock. Any feedback would be appreciated.

  • @TomK1001
    @TomK1001 6 лет назад +1

    Question - if the laptop has a discrete GPU in addition to the integrated GPU, which one is in use on the external monitors via usb-c? To rephrase, will gaming performance be the same on the external monitor and the built-in monitor?
    Thanks!

    • @LonSeidman
      @LonSeidman  6 лет назад

      It will work along with how your laptop normally switches between discrete and on board graphics. Generally I've found laptops will switch to the GPU once plugged in but every one of them tends to behave differently.
