Howdy Everyone,
Just some FYI. I have been using the BossDock before its official release to run 2 - 34" Curved LG monitors running at 3440 x 1440 @ 60hz. For everyday use there is no noticeable lag, stuttering, or loss of picture clarity or quality. I have not had any issues with the product heating up, turning off, loosing connection, or anything of the sort. I also have multiple peripherals plugged into it as well.
All in all its been a great product.
Cheers.

Tex-ArozziThanks for the info; it's crazy how many USB C docks out there seem to intentionally avoid specifying whether their video outputs are via DisplayLink or a USB C alt-mode.

Is it possible to run 3 1080p monitors off this at once? Or perhaps 2 from the dock, and a 3rd from a video card at the same time?

If this device does not tax any resources from a graphics card, there can be a lag? right? I would like to use my graphics card to deliver signal to my monitors. I have two 2K monitors with a 2017 MacBook Pro 15. Will it run my monitors natively? Thanks!

khandfwNo, according to Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Juiced-Systems-BossDOCK-Universal-Docking/dp/B0743LXHDZ):

Can this support 144hz or 165hz at 1440p? Or only 60hz at any resolution? My laptop (Razer Blade 14") has Thunderbolt3 USB-C and I've been searching forever for a dock that can do it.

Does this (Bossdock) require USB 3.1 gen 2 or is USB3.1 Gen 1 enough? The laptop I intend to use this on only has Gen1 (480 Mb). Also the screens support Linux?

zubietarobertoI researched and I _think_ it will work. According to the amazon listing(https://www.amazon.com/Juiced-Systems-BossDOCK-Universal-Docking/dp/B0743LXHDZ/#aplus) it requires a minimum of USB 3.0 . Those appear as 5000M in "lsusb" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Version_history, Max Transfer rate column), and are painted blue in most devices. I have some USB3 ports on that machine, but they are USB-A connectors. So It should work If I connect this to a USB-A to USB-C cable. Turns out the USB-C connector in my laptop is graded to USB 2.0!
Note that this uses a USB Video Card from Displaylink, instead of USB Display Mode which outputs from the Laptop's video card. So it does not seem to require USB-3.1.
USB is just too complicated.

zubietarobertoWill it work. Probably.
Will it work correctly? Debatable, especially depending on how much IO you want it to provide. Transfer rates are probably not going to be fast enough to enable driving multiple high resolution monitors and other high IO devices at full speeds. You'll see a lot of people complaining about lag and stuttering when paired with high resolution monitors and this is probably why. Even at full 10 Gbps speeds, it significantly trails TB3 @ 40 Gbps.
That said, if you're going to be using this for general productivity desktop use (internet, email, MS Office apps), you're likely to be fine (no promises), and you're unlikely to find a port replicator that offers this much expansion for anywhere close to this price.

Anyone know of a USB-C to USB-C only hub? Been looking for the last three years and it seems they don't exist. Most I can find is a total of two USB-C ports with a hand full of other useless crap.
