Hi,
I am looking to once and for all clean up my desk of cables and streamline my workflow. I work from home, and I have a macbook pro for work (one of the new M1 ones), and a desktop pc for gaming that I built. I would like a setup where all of my peripherals (monitors, ethernet, keyboard, mouse, headset, webcam, etc) can be switched between the two systems seamlessly.
From what I can tell, the most confusing thing is the display support. I currently have a 2 X 1440p, 144Hz monitors. I know a lot of the usb-c 3.0 dongles are limited and can't support the higher refresh rate. So do I need thunderbolt? Or how can I connect them?
Ideally (though less important) the dock support passthrough charging for the macbook. I'd like to be able to detach the macbook for when I travel.
Can anyone give me specific advice? Or direct me to a company with a knowledgeable sales rep? Price isn't a huge concern, since I believe I can get my work to pay for it.
