I bought the Cable Matters 2-Pack, Gold Plated DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable (6 Feet) on Amazon for US$17.99 (S$25).

I bought it together with the Cable Matters Thunderbolt 3 to Dual 4K or Single 5K DisplayPort Adapter.

I was looking for an adapter that allows me to output to two external displays using just a single port and I realized that USB-C is not the way to go. USB-C specifications only allow one external display per USB-C port.

So the next logical thing to search is for Thunderbolt 3 adapters and I found the Cable Matters Thunderbolt 3 to Dual 4K or Single 5K DisplayPort Adapter from Amazon retailing for US$79.99 (S$112).

The AmazonBasics USB Type-C to Micro-B 2.0 Cable is available in two colors and comes in three different lengths: 6″ (15.2cm), 3ft (0.9m) and 6ft (1.8)

Similarly to the AmazonBasics USB Type-C to USB Type-C 2.0 Cable, there is a price difference between the black and white. I am using the black for comparison.

I bought this brandless USB-C to Mini DisplayPort Adapter from Lazada for S$12.96 with free shipping to Singapore if you opted for the slowest shipping.

I am using the black for comparison as there is a price difference between the black and white.

This is the last that I bought from Yodobashi Multimedia Sapporo Store.

Bought two Elecom USB-C to USB-C Power Delivery Cable from Yodobashi Multimedia Sapporo Store.

After buying it, I realized both cables are from different series although they look the same. I have no idea what are the differences. According to Benson Leung the USB3-CC5P support USB Power Delivery up to 100W (5A) while USB3-CCP supports USB Power Delivery of up to 60W (3A).

Bought the Leplus USB-C to USB-A 3.0 Adapter from Yodobashi Multimedia Sapporo Store.

Leplus is a brand by MSSolutions Japan. Since it is a relatively unknown brand, the price is cheaper as well.

I got my nonda USB-C to USB 3.0 Mini Adapter from Amazon for US$9.99 (S$14).
