HI to you both, and thanks so much for your replies. It seems you both are correct-- that is the correct USB-C port, but it doesnt seem to be connected to the NVIDIA chip as mentioned in jagibson's post. It seems that this is an un-correctable problem with this laptop.... How in the world can you tell if a chip is or isnt hardwired to a specific port to avoid this problem in the future? Would this laptop have the same issue (has a miniDP) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BP9SFZ5/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2TC87EJKQMY9O&psc=1? Would you guys recommend any other sub $1700 laptop for running a vive pro? I know a desktop would be more capable, but i need the system to be mobile. Thanks!

Hi, I just got a Vive Pro and a ASUS ROG GTX531 with a usb-c that supports displayport 1.2. I have a USB-c/Displayport adaptor recommended in another thread and previously confirmed to work with other laptops and the pro. I think I was able to set my NVIDIA gtx-1070 as the default GPU for everything, but it still will not connect. What am I doing wrong??? Appreciate any and all help.
