I bought a Pluggable dock for my new System76 notebook. It had Display Link Technology. Dafuq is that? Well, the TLDR is it's a virtual display driver that I have to rely on. No thank you. It made my second external monitor have an unusable amount of screen tearing. I should have went with the more expensive one that didn't have DiSpLaY LiNk TeChNoLgY.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

HDMI & DisplayPort both have annoying limitations for a variety of reasons. DVI is ok for 2K, but can’t keep up with 4K. Go with Thunderbolt or USB-C for anything over 1080P144Hz.

That's what I'm using.
