I was looking for a new USB-c hub and came across this article. It’s an interesting write-up of what is on the inside of some popular options

    Did about a year of a docked laptop setup. Basically anything CableMatters is good. I used the ‎201331-BLK-J (DisplayPort Ultrawide) and the 201310-BLK-N (HDMI 2.1 OLED TV).

    I would pass through my 100W charger and it worked fine. Audio would be sent over the video connection which meant no driver issues. I had speakers connected to the monitor.

    The rest of the USB ports were miscellaneous and at least one cable going to the monitor to use its USB ports.
