USB-C is great for external monitor connections from laptops.

Is it better than HDMI? That's what I typically use now. (Display port on my desktop PC.)

It's nicer for laptops because you can have power, display, and internet in one cable going to a dock. TBH I don't see many benefits for desktops. You could daisy chain monitors and have less cables I guess.

Oh, I see now. Yes, I can see how that would be a nice benefit for using it on a laptop. I'm not even sure my monitors have USB-C inputs, but I'm probably behind the times
