What happens when my home computer connects to my home VPN (with Asus built-in Client) ? Is there any benefit in doing it so? Because my IP is not hidden, is there encryption involved that can benefit me ?

I understand if I get VPN service then its a different story because all traffic gets routed through 3rd party VPN server.....
No benefit in a sense it wont be any more secure than not using one.
Yes to last question
