The only question mark is whether I need to do something funky to connect my monitor, which is currently using a mini-DP to DP cable. I could do HDMI, but I think the monitor is old enough that it will only support 4k/30p versus 4k/60p on DisplayPort. That seems to be an $18 cable, so no big deal.
Same issue with my Dell U2713HM, a Cable Matters USB-C/Thunderbolt to DP seems to work well enough, connecting to my M1 Pro MacBook Pro.
I am having occasionally issues with the monitor not seeing the output after sleep though. Don't know whether it is the monitor, Caldigit Element Hub or the MacBook that is at fault.
Sometimes just replugging the USB-C to DP cable fixes it, sometimes I have to swap to a new USB-B port and sometimes I actually have to power cycle the monitor.
Thankfully it only happens a couple of times a month.
