#2Will this be common with AMD laptops? I had very few choices in India 2 years back for driving a 5k screen, and they were all Intel and TB4. That Asus doesnt charge and send video at the same time, although my Mac does.

Definitely not something to expect. AMD and Thunderbolt is not usually something you’ll see together.
But you should be able to charge and do 5k with USB 4

Currently I am looking at a Asus Zenbook Intel notebook that is connected by single USB-C cable. It charges and displays on 2 external monitors at the same time. One is QHD, other FHD. Also, gigabit network is provided through the same cable.
I am not joking: try fully updating all notebook firmware AND display/docking station firmware.

Thunderbolt these days is nothing more than USB 4 with a few optional features made mandatory. Many AMD laptops support everything found in Thunderbolt but don't call it Thunderbolt for legal reasons.

#6It's funny how everything is optional on the usb 4 features graph.
Can you do 5 W and 1.1 Mbps and call it usb 4?

Pretty much all new higher end AMD laptops have Thunderbolt, what are you talking about?

#8The big question is whether VRR monitors will work fine via TB5 connections - because right now they mostly revert to fixed frame rate.

My AMD ASUS charges, provides video and handles whole bunch of extra connectivity via Thunderbolt 4 just fine.
So yes, it's common with AMD laptops too.

#10If I could buy a 5k (retina) 120hz 27" monitor that would be endgame for me, I believe this finally has the bandwidth for that.
