Hello all!
I'm thinking to get the Lenovo P27h (https://www.lenovo.com/gb/en/accessories-and-monitors/monitors/professional/P27h-10A16270QP127inch-Monitor-HDMI/p/61AFGAT1UK) because it ticks all the right boxes for me (IPS, good price/size/resolution ratio, USB hub), however my question is about the integrated USB hub:
I would like to get this version (rather than the P27q, which is USB 3.0 only) as it has the usb-c which I can use basically as a docking solution for my work laptop when working from home (P52).
However, I would be using this also with my personal older desktop/laptops which don't have usb-c, so my question is if I can use the integrated usb hub in the P27h also with an adapter (like this one https://ebay.us/BXf4pm) or using an usb-c pcie card I would add to my desktop, (which would however obviously not carry the display outpup)? I guess it should work in USB-only mode and I would connect the monitor using another DP/HDMI cable, but this kind of usb(-c)/thunderbolt stuff is a still a bit confusing to me, so I wanted to be sure it will indeed work as USB-only hub in this way?
Which is my sub question - is there a way to get a display output from a desktop/laptop which does not have a gpu with USB-c/thunderbolt 3 output? I guess not, until I get new MB or GPU with this feature, but I might me missing something here.
