So I believe I over researched and gave my brain a system overload because I am hitting a brick wall as to what the best option is for my WFH setup. I started a new job and I have to use their work laptop (Okta security, etc.). They will expense whatever I need, however, I am not looking to ask for anything over $200. Ideally, $100 or less.
- Work laptop: Dell Latitude 5320
- Laptop Ports: HMDI, USB, (2) USB-Cs (2) Dell 7-in-1 USB-C Multiport Adapter
My personal setup, that I would still like to utilize my two monitors, and be able to switch to my personal PC, is as follows:
- Dell G5 Desktop: (10th Gen Intel i9, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8GB GDDR6)
- 32” Dell 4k (SQ221Qs): 2 x HDMI (HDCP 2.2), DisplayPort 1.2, Audio line-out, USB 3.0 upstream, USB 3.0 downstream, USB 3.0 downstream with Battery Charging 1.2
- 32" Dell Gaming (S3222DGM): (DisplayPort: 165 Hz OR HDMI: 144 Hz): 2 x HDMI (HDCP 2.2), DisplayPort (DisplayPort 1.2 mode, HDCP 2.2), Audio line-out (mini-jack)
What I am trying to do:
- Ideally would like to have my work laptop closed shut and cleared out of my space. I would like to power it on and it work with my two monitors (extended). I would love to keep the specs on my monitors (4k/165hz) however, I am not looking to break the bank, so I am okay if they cant be to their max capabilities. My job is just spreadsheets, emails, video calls primarily, nothing fancy needed.
- I would like to easily press a button and switch from my work PC to my personal PC
- Utilize one keyboard and one mouse
Bonus question:
- Is there a way to do all of the above, but also, be able to have one screen my personal PC, and the other screen my work PC?
TYSM in advance!
