For photo editing it would be nice have one screen in Portrait and one in Landscape. As this is ad hoc as the pictures change, even though the screen does rotate its not viable to move it to and fro all the time ( ref wear/strain on the cable connectors - which have no securing points ).
Note I do not need to see both screens at once! I would not mind is it was a two into one switch and manually switch from one to the other. As long as switching when the monitor was on would not short out the GPU. I can not practically turn off the computer every time to do this. Thats not viable.
Ideally I would like a quality switch.
The only way I can see would be to upgrade my brand new GTX 970 into a GTX 980 TI, very loath to do this as its brand new. Or buy another GTX 970 and SLI it ( whatever that is - guess it means putting another in and connecting it somehow? That would eat my last PCIe x8 ( physical x16 ) slot. I planned to use this for another Intel 750 SSD
.
So the switch looks like a good idea. But is there such a thing?
Note it must run 4K at 60 Hz. 3840 x 2160.
Any ideas?
Is there such a thing as a DP 2 into 1 switch? - I cant find one anywhere.
