    Question Can I connect a desktop and laptop to Dell Docking Station D6000?

    Thanks! Yes, after posting this I read the documentation and realized the dock wasn't going to do what I'd hoped. At this point I'm aware I need a KVM switch, but I'd love to hear any recommendations or brands to seek out/avoid.

    Question Can I connect a desktop and laptop to Dell Docking Station D6000?

    @Lutfij Thanks for the reply! I also have a tp-link 5-port Gigabit Desktop Switch (TL-SG105), so I'm covered on connecting the ethernet to both devices. At this point it's really only the USB devices that I need to cover. But then I would be using my D6000, the desktop switch, and the KVM...

    Question Can I connect a desktop and laptop to Dell Docking Station D6000?

    I have a D6000, which I've used successfully with my work laptop for years. I can successfully unplug the dock from my laptop and plug it into the desktop to use the same peripherals. Now I'm trying to determine if I can connect it to my gaming computer at the same time without unplugging...

    Question Help upgrading GPU for Ultrawide Curved Monitor ?

    Just wanted to follow up and say thanks again! I changed out the case and power supply and it's been great so far. I think the temperature is already better, and it's quieter too, which is a wonderful bonus. I'll grab the GPU when it comes in, but it's already been a success!

    Question Help upgrading GPU for Ultrawide Curved Monitor ?

    Thanks again for such helpful responses! I think I can handle the higher budget, though I think I'll probably hold off on the RTX 4080 super until it comes back in stock. Paying an extra $600 for the reseller markup doesn't feel good. Would there be any issue with using the new power supply...

    Question Help upgrading GPU for Ultrawide Curved Monitor ?

    Thanks for the thorough response! As I mentioned, I'm not too worried about FPS, but it's probably better to err on the side of a higher quality GPU now so I'm not wanting to replace it again in 2 years. I'm also open to replacing the case - do you have a recommendation? Is it poorly designed...

    Question Help upgrading GPU for Ultrawide Curved Monitor ?

    I recently upgraded my monitor, knowing that I would also need to upgrade my graphics card. Now I'm trying to determine both which GPU to get, but also if I need to upgrade anything else (ie, power supply, fans, etc). I briefly tested the monitor with my current GPU and it was (I think)...

    Question Can my PC handle a 1440p monitor?

    I'm looking to upgrade my monitor for my gaming PC, and trying to figure out how much it can handle. The number of options is frankly dizzying. I've been looking at 34-inch ultrawide curved monitors like the Acer Nitro: Acer Nitro 34" QHD 3440 x 1440 1500R Curved PC Gaming Monitor | AMD...
