Hi guys. I apologise for the vague headline.

I bought a rog strix g17 a year ago because live in a small appartment ( 2 bedroom 56 m^2) and I felt like my PC setup took up too much space.

This week I caved and fetched my monitor and keyboard. I missed my 27 inch screen…

My question is: Should I use a dock+thunderbolt or simply connect the monitor and laptop via HDMI? I bought a Kensington dock, but I only connect to 1 monitor. Did I fuck up + waste money on the dock?

(I am a bit of a novice in this area and sadly I found it hard to find a guide to my specific needs)

I would really appreciate your input. Ty :)
