The on-board graphics card is basically enough for me. I only need DP port and USB-C port for the monitors. Most Z690 motherboards like ASUS Prime Z690-P or ASUS ROG Strix Z690-F Gaming have one (or more) USB-C (USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C) ports. Can I connect a monitor to this USB-C port ? Could not find anything anywhere regarding USB-C Alt Mode. Basically this means the DisplayPort alt-mode hijacks the lines USB-C would've used for USB. The only way to have USB and DP at the same time is if your USB-C supports Thunderbolt and get a Thunderbolt based dock. Alternatively, you can buy a hub that plugs into another USB port on the laptop. I am buying an adapter for USB-C to HDMI which requires Alt Mode. My laptop supports DisplayPort 1.2 but I don't know if it has Alt mode. Can someone help me out? If the USB-C port does not support DP Alt Mode, a USB-A to USB-C adapter will not resolve the issue. This is because USB-A does not support video output, and simply changing the connector type won’t enable video functionality.
