This already charges using USB-C - unless you're talking about a wired mouse mode?

3440x1440@100Hz is very close (slightly less) than the bandwidth requirement of 3840x2160@60Hz Docks that support dual 4k60Hz: - USB-C with…

For memory, that one has one TPU on each of 2x lanes in the m.2 E key. Since that slot is commonly used for wifi cards which only typically…

If you're happy to plug in the cable, I've found it works ok, but you'll ideally need to use another mic e.g. from a webcam. If you're…

A lot of cheap monitors use an external 12v power brick, E.g: https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/msi-238-pro-full-hd-100hz-monitor-mp24212-msi/…

When it's asking for audio from the mic it'll switch over to HFP/hands free compared to the regular high quality mode A2DP sinc which…

Do you need 10G to your wireless clients? If you're buying a 10G switch anyway you'll have an easier time with a 2.5G router, e.g. the…

Wifi 6E supports 6GHz on top of 2.4 and 5GHz. An example of when it's better is somewhere very crowded, since it's not common so you don't…

$1049 for a laptop with 8GB of soldered RAM is not a good deal, keep trying to talk your friend out of it. Assuming he's only looking at…

I'd expect a portable SSD would work for you much better - micro SD cards tend to wear fast and perform unreliable over the long term. IIRC…

The difference in screen size probably isn't as big as you think because of the different aspect ratios - this laptop's screen is taller…

D-Link 5-Port Gigabit Switch DGS-1005A $15 + Del ($0 VIC/SYD C&C) + SurChg @ Centre Com (Price Beat from $14.25 @ Officeworks)
