Thunderbolt/usb c hardware help

[Scopus]

Hello im getting laptop with thunderbolt3 port and id like to often connect to my desktop monitor/keyboard/mouse.my goal is to have keyboard,mouse, and monitor connected to a hub and be able to come with my laptop just connect one cable to be able to use laptop with desktop monitor, keyboard, mouse.

I see there are usb-c hubs to connect everything together i think to make this work?My desktop is kinna old lga1366 without any type c connector or even usb 3. It has:

1. 2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x16 x16
   (The PCI Express slots conform to PCI Express 2.0 standard.)
2. 1 x PCI Express x4 slot
3. 1 x PCI Express x1 slot

will it work adding a usb-c pcie card and connecting hub between it and laptop?

EDIT : i just got word I won't be able to connect my monitor to my desktop via USB-C even if i get a PCIe USB-C adaptor. thoughts on best way how best should i go about it? what do i need to buy to connect to my monitor, and mouse with keyboard? less cables to connect to laptop the better
my monitor has dvi and vga inputs, mouse and keyboard are usb. desktop gpu has vga,dvi,hdmi outputs.

laptop has:
1 HDMI™ 1.4b output Port (with HDCP)
2 Mini DisplayPort 1.3
1 Thunderbolt™ 3 / USB 3.1 Gen 2 combo Port (Type-C)
1 USB 3.1 Gen 2 Port (Type-C)
4 USB 3.0 Ports (USB 3.1 Gen 1) (1 x powered USB port, AC/DC)

thanks

A KVM switch sounds almost like what you want.

I’d look into a software keyboard/mouse sharing solution like Synergy. This would then just leave having to plug the monitor in on a different input.

Not exactly what you wanted, but probably the easiest/cheapest solution. Otherwise, a KVM switch is indeed what you would need.

no synergy since one pc will not have internet. with kvm switch guess would have to connect 3 cables to laptop each time? that sucks wish there was some kind of dock or hub that made simple connection. i see people on utube with thunderbolt doing this via one cable/hub method. to do that my desktop must have thunderbolt 3 as well? myb something like this would work? wouldnt docking station also provide one cable solution?
