USB C Bandwidth for Asus Zephyrus G15

Laptop specs are below, but shouldn't be too important!

Hi all! I am a college student that uses a laptop for everything. I dock it to a monitor to work while I'm in my dorm. I have an Anker powered USB Hub that I plug into the USB A port on the laptop, a USB C to DisplayPort Cable that is plugged into the USB C slot, and a USB C dongle that I have ethernet connected to on the other USB C slot. The Anker dock is completely full. 10 ports, 3 of which are used for charging. Nothing extremely data hungry is going through there. I have listed the ports and what they're used for below if it helps! I would really like to have a laptop that has one cord for everything, which isn't possible as it requires a barrel plug to charge properly. 

So my question:

How much can I put on a single USB C port? 

I would like to find a dock that I can pass DisplayPort through, separate out the audio, attach ethernet, and hook up the Anker hub. With all that connected, is that too much for a single USB C port? If so, would separating out the DisplayPort to its own port solve the issue?

Thank you so much for the help! I am happy to answer any questions you have.
