Hi everyone.
I'm pretty new to KVM Switches and I'm just wondering what the easiest way would be for my desired setup. Right now I have 3 monitors, 2 of them are connected to my gaming PC and 1 is connected to my laptop. I don't like having 2 keyboards and mice to control both PC's so the solution I think is KVM switches.
If possible,
--Switch the keyboard+mouse without monitor changes
--Use of all 3 monitors for one PC, along with speakers and a usb amp for my headphones
I'm assuming I would need 2 separate switches, is that right? Do you guys have any recommendations for decent quality kvm switches that aren't too expensive?
My PC (PCPartPicker)
Monitor Outputs:
(1) BenQ Monitor:
-2 HDMI
-1 DVI
-1 VGA
(2) Gateway Monitor:
-1 DVI
-1 VGA
(3) ViewSonic Monitor:
-1 HDMI
-1 DVI
-1 VGA
PC Outputs:
-2 DVI
-1 DisplayPort
-1 HDMI
Laptop Outputs:
-HDMI
Hopefully I provided enough information and explained my situation thoroughly
