...and I have great success with various Windows laptops. They'll go 6 years or more, but then again I buy entry level business class, not gaming or consumer grade. I also never get discrete graphics since if I wanted to play games, I'd have build a desktop. Laptops are the wrong platform for gaming unless one must be highly portable and game in remote locations.

If my sister doesn't use the Dell USB-C dock I gave her, I can send it your way. It will only support 2 displays though. You need Thunderbolt 3 to support multiple 4k or 3+ displays on both the laptop and the docking station. I found that out after hours of troubleshooting new equipment. My company saved $10 on the non-Thunderbolt docking station only to have me spend half a day on the problem and $170 on another docking station.
