My setup is a bit more rudimentary, but I'm using 3 monitors with a combination of HDMI and Display port inputs and outputs. I wish this company would add mini DP or DP along with HDMI. I use 2 docking stations for each laptop. My work laptop is a Lenovo and the docking station outputs 2 DP and 1 HDMI. My Alienware M18 outputs 1 mini DP to 2 HDMI and then a Dell docking station station outputs another HDMI. My 2 BenQ 24in have 1 DP and 1 HDMI in. My LG 27in has 1 DP and 2 HDMI in. It all works out great! I use a 3.0 USB splitter and a 3.5mm splitter for the peripherals and speakers.

Yeah, I am so pleased alienware kept that mini DP as most other manufacturers only have usbc and hdmi these days 😢

@@MashITTech it turned out to be a Godsend for me, given the limitations of inputs on my 2 24in monitors and my dual monitor splitter being 1 mini DP to 2 HDMI. I was looking at another few hundred to invest in another solution had it not! Lol!

@@MashITTech by the way, your videos have really helped me become comfortable with my M18. I did a RAM swap and upgraded to 2 2TB drives. What's great is I now have the original 1TB as an external!

Thanks for this great video. When you have the device in matrix mode, how do you make them active in one screen or the other?

Excellent and thorough. I decided I need to be able to swap single monitors between active and standby PCs... so very curious if you have InputA selected for PC1, and InputB selected for PC2 (as at 9:20 in video) and press Select, does it swap the inputs on each PC, or does it re-sync the inputs to a single PC??

I would like to know if you still have this Alienware 2723DF monitor and if you could record a review of it? I am very much wondering if it is worth the price. I don't know if I shouldn't also order the AW2724DM and compare them in person and then return one. What I care most about is that glossy matrix coating and contrast. It is possible that the only really visible difference is 180hz vs 280hz, but who knows.

I do still have the 2723DF and its set up as my gaming monitor at home. I may try and get hold of the 2724dm soon but I can tell you this now, I LOVE my 2723DF and it destroys my razer raptor

this model does not bring display port from what I saw, the cables that are connected directly to the monitors are hdmi 2.0?, I have a 144hz monitor.

this version is HDMI 2.0 so will not do 4k144 but will do 1440p@144. They do also offer a DP variant of this switch I believe and they are in the process of making a HDMI2.1 version

Do you know if with this new model with usb 3.0, the kvm will have DisplayLink or not, since I want to connect my pc gamer with a mac m1 2020, which can only transmit to 1 video device but according to this video kzitem.info/news/bejne/pqmc4J2qe2tyqnY, point out that through a dock is possible so it is seen, but I do not know if this latest model can be without the need to buy a dock or if you know if they will release another with this option?

That KVM at this point is outdated, you can buy them with Thunderbolt ports/ USB Type C and allow laptops to charge while in use so it elimiates the need to be hooked on to power supply.

You're not showing us how these are connected to the ports on the computer(s). Not all GPUs come with HDMI also and that's the tricky part with these.

Actually found that the manufacturer’s website has all the proper recommended adapters you need to get things to work with the resolution supported by the KVM monitor computer etc
