    A monitor with Ethernet? That sounds interesting.

    Can you please give me the model name? Thanks!

      HP Z27k G3

      It’s not Thunderbolt, “only” normal USB-C, but it works okay, especially considering the price.

      Keep in mind that the daisy chaining feature is pretty useless with macOS, as, you guessed it, it uses MST (it has to in this case to be fair) which macOS doesn’t like.

      You get 90 watts of power delivery, 4 USB ports and GbE.
