Ok so I recently purchased an asus motherboard that has a usb c connector (Asus Strix z370f) and I was wonder if I were to purchase this usb c hub what ports would work. This is the hub: https://www.amazon.com/Adapter-Charging-Ethernet-MacBook-Chromebook/dp/B0773KD48G/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1515793687&sr=8-8&keywords=usb+c+hub. I know that using hdmi is most likely out but what other thing would and wouldn't work.

If I ever got a laptop with thunderbolt 3 this would be the only thing I would need for io.

I was saying how since I was only using this on a usb c port the hdmi which relies on thunderbolt would not work.

gigabit LAN, SD card are runing fine with usb 3.0 speed, there would be no benefit for doing this with expensiv thunderbolt

the usb c port will just work like a normal USB 3.0 port
