Hi, just wondering if the title is possible. I'm currently daily driving my steam deck as my work pc in my office. mostly i used it to stream programs off my much beefier main pc at home.

Recently I've been thinking of adding a drawing tablet to the setup (wacom movink) but it uses usb c to c and the dock only has one for power. so if i used an adapter (usb c to usb a), would it work?

cheers.

An external GPU may be the way to go. Doesn't have to be a beast of a GPU. Probably best to find one thats AMD for easy compatibility. You could also find one that has the amount of connections you need.

this is a good idea, although i try to not have any hardware creep if i can help it as i mostly used my main pc at home and stream it to my deck. if no other option works this might be my final solution. thank you for suggesting this.
