Question about Samsung LS49A950UIUXEN

The monitor is not bad at all. I have a full USB C thunderbolt 3 dock and this monitor with its own USB C cable. I can then charge two laptops at the same time and use them side by side. The mouse and keyboard are connected to the USB ports of the monitor and can therefore be switched between the sources. The only thing you have to watch out for is that if you really want to use the full resolution with the 120hz that the monitor has, you have to use displayport! And if you also want to use a USB c dock, it has to be at least a thunderbolt 3 dock and not just any dongle. I bought one from dell for around 300 Stutz back then.... And one more point: the compatibility for the full resolution is not given with some laptops (e.g. thinkpad T14) because of the gpu module and/or because the USB c port does not support thunderbolt 3. Therefore I have to connect both USB c cables to the thinkpad to use the whole monitor and then use the monitor as 'two screens' which is not visible when using it.... I wouldn't switch the external HD between the laptops via the KVM switch - you'll probably fry the external HD quite quickly because it will never be correctly dismounted from the file system - it's better to use a small, inexpensive NAS and then both laptops can access it at the same time. In short: with laptops a 120hz 5120x1440 monitor is a bit overkill - in 3-5 years it will probably be better thanks to thunderbolt upgrades etc. But the monitor is rather made to be connected via displayport to a reasonable graphics card. If 60hz is enough for you, there are probably cheaper monitors that can do the same. PS: playstation is the same game.... The 120hz only work with the monitor via displayport connection and there's only one of them, so have fun with the change =D
