Hi,

 

I'm looking for an all-in-one solution (or whatever is best/reasonable) to connect together my existing set up with new additions of the PC I'm going to be building.

 

Components of current setup:

  • PS5
  • 4K 60hz monitor (used for ps5)
  • PC (1440p gaming, to be built)
  • 1440p monitor (likely 144hz-160hz, not bought yet, for PC games)
  • Work laptop (hybrid work)
  • Z200 desk speakers 
  • HDMI 2.1 cable (PS5)
  • USB-C to display port cable (work laptop)

 

How I would like everything to connect

  • PS5 to only connect to 4K monitor via HDMI 2.1
  • PC to connect to both 1440p monitor (primary) and 4K monitor (secondary) via display port
  • When both PC and PS5 in use, PC outputs to 1440p monitor only
  • Work laptop to connect to both monitors (never used simultaneously with PS5/PC) via USB-C to display port
  • Speakers to output audio for both PC and PS5 simultaneously, 3.5mm jack
  • Possibly in the future a headset that can also output/input both PC and PS5 simultaneously  

 

What additional cables/components would be necessary to achieve this? Let me know if you need any additional info. Sorry if this is extremely basic! Thanks!

Asus VP28UQGL for the 4k monitor (1 display port 2 hdmi)

 

Undecided for the 1440p, I'm guessing it's the ports that are of importance in this so I can factor this in when choosing what to buy
