Docking station for laptop to high res monitor. (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for a docking station for my frame.work laptop running Linux. The big ask is I want to be able to hook up to my big monitor with a 3840x2160 resolution (I think it is 8K?).

Has anyone found one that works with that combination of factors?

I've read a bunch of posts on the frame.work forums and looked at a bunch of docks on Amazon, but haven't found one that gives me confidence it'll work.

I have a caldigit ts3 I got from work that works well with the framework. Looks like it only does a max of one 5k or two 4k monitors. They have a new one (caldigit ts4) that appears to work up to 8k.

If it were me (and I didn’t get the dock free from work) I’d just buy and test a few cheap amazon docks then return the ones I dont like.

Thanks, I received the caldigit have set it up. Everything seems to be working.
