I'm building a dual setup for work (laptop) and gaming (PC), and I want to use the same 3 monitors via KVM, plus a 55″ top screen(which is yet to arrive) (PC-only unless a clean 4th solution exists).
Monitor layout:
27″ AOC – 32″ AOC – 27″ AOC (bottom)
55″ on top (currently PC-only, but I’d love laptop support if possible)
What I want to share via KVM (PC ↔ Laptop):
3 bottom monitors
Keyboard & mouse
Webcam & headset
Amplifier audio
Hardware:
PC: i7-10700, RTX 3090 (2× HDMI, 2× DP)
Laptop: HP EliteBook G11 (HDMI + Thunderbolt/USB-C)
Monitors: AOC (HDMI/DP)
Plan (but need confirmation):
Triple monitor KVM
USB-C / DisplayLink dock for laptop (3 outputs)
55″ directly on PC, unless 4-monitor KVM or adapter is viable
Question:
Any reliable KVM + Dock combos for 1440p/144Hz (work + gaming)?
Is 4 external displays on a laptop realistic, or should I stick to 3?
I want to get this right the first time — any experience or warnings appreciated.
