I got the OEM Dock from Steam. I appreciate that it came with an additional wall adapter for fast charging and that it has Ethernet built in. Also that it's supported by Steam as it's a first-party accessory.
Same. Oem dock. It’s awesome and firmware updates come right through the deck.
I originally bought the JSAux Dock and shortly after connecting it to my TV it started wrecking havoc with the CEC functions. Volume control would randomly stop working. Was pulling my hair out thinking that something in the AVR stack was starting to fritz out and go.
I pushed them for a refund and swapped to the OEM Dock. Haven't looked back since. CEC issues disappeared and the dock feels a lot more reliable than the jsaux one.
Also JSAux dock only had windows firmware updaters at the time, so wasn't a great look for first party support.
Had the same experience but I just got a CEC killer between the TV and the dock. No issues after that.
I and three friends have jsaux docks and none of have ever had done any firmware updates or had any issues.
OEM dock has both DP + HDMI. I am able to drive two external two external 1440p displays. Compiling directly on the deck can take longer than on beefier HW, but you probably already know that.
