I've used Wavlink products in the past and I've been really satisfied. I think I have one of their hubs like this too but I guess its an older version and logo was different. *

True.

You can't run 4K60 on three feeds except maybe on USB 4.

Posted it cause I am seriously intrigued by this product and wanted to share with other. It having display port instead of VGA like what most others have is what sold me. As we all know, display port is much more advanced then VGA. It being regular price doesn't mean it's bad value. I did a lot of comparison shopping.

I trust most 3rd parties on Amazon because of Amazon's return policy coverage. It's the same thing as buying from third party venders in Costco. Costco and Amazon has reputation to uphold. Any third party seller needs to back their product or face insane returns.

Above are just my opinion.

You did good. This is great for a multimonitor setup.

As much as I like my 55" TV Monitor, there are times in which multiple separate screens are superior.

Well reviewed on the US site.

My guess is that it can do 2x 1440p monitors @60hz, I wish the specs were clearer.

Wavlink provides linux drivers as well. I have a generic dock with a Wavlink chipset and it has worked great with Ubuntu for the past couple of years. Plugable uses Wavlink chips in their docks last time I checked.

Not all USB-C ports support idsplay out, yours probably don't
You should check with Acer
