Omen 17-ck0000 Docking Station

[KnightLife]

i have a OMEN 17.3 inch Gaming Laptop PC 17-ck0000 , and I'm looking for a docking station or a usb-hub to help declutter my desk some. All I really want to do is plug all my peripheral (monitor, mouse, keyboard, external hard drives, maybe my tv. etc.) into one clutter-free source. But after trying to do some research on my own, I'm just really confused over what, if anything would work to achieve this. 

So, I'm looking for recommendations, suggestions, or any help. 

Thank you.

Opted for the Thunderbolt Dock G2, and it’s working well so far. Do get a little delay when using some programs on my external monitor when compared to just the laptop, or even when my monitor was connected directly to the laptop instead of through the docking station, and it didn’t want to recognize my external hard drive at first, but otherwise it’s been great. Thanks
