Should give you brightness controls etc on the LG ultra fine and such, but wont ever supply a ton of power to charge boot the devices.

Theres a 75 dollar card that takes DisplayPort in and will slam it into your USB-C signal.

But if you want to hook up the optional supplemental power, its a SATA connector.

I think I started my reply by supporting ActionableMango (a most knowledgeable MR user) and then veered off into replying to someone else.

A 9 week old newborns sleeping patterns will do that to you My apologies.

And he should add USB-C content too.

Its the perfect card, but FYI for everyone; I Spoke with caldigit yesterday.

Using it to get large video files from my NVMe raid to deliverable SSDs.

They come in multiple configurations including 1A1C, 2As, 2Cs or 1A and Sata.

I purchased the usb 3 version and the drivers only work with MacOS 10.9.
