I just purchased the new Razer Blade Stealth 13 and it's fantastic, but I cannot find the right gear to connect a 144Hz gaming monitor with either HDMI or DP since there is no video out and without investing on a Core and graphics card. What is the best way to do so?
For additional information: I tested multiple docking stations from several vendor but all all use their own chips and result in low FPS. I found ASIN B07JB9GBTX on Amazon that is a "TB3 to DP cable" that apparently requires "DisplayPort Alternate" video signal but not sure if it's a) supported by the 2019 model and b) if it allows me to connect my single gaming monitor leveraging the discrete video processing.
Help and thanks!

I ended up purchasing the Razer Core V2 and installed NVIDIA RTX 2070. It's working fine but had a hard time figuring out it produces a DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION when hooking an additional USB 3.0 hub to the Core 2, or when you connect too many USB devices to the Core V2. I ended up connecting the Razer Mamba HyperFlux & Firefly HyperFlux, ManI'War bluetooth usb dongle and keyboard to the Core and the rest directly. I also noticed that the Microsoft HD LifeCam has a weird behavior when connected to the core, so instead connect it directly to the laptop when livestreaming. In summary, I tested multiple docks including the SIIG, Cable MAtters, J5, Dell and not all of them recommended... stick to the Core V2 and minimize USB devices. For additional reference and hoping to help other is the future, I also got once a DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE BSOD and the USB devices were "rebooting" when connected to the Core V2...
