Looking for a specific Hub

Bubbleboi64

Hey so I am a bit stumpted on finding a hub for a specific use case. Maybe I am looking for a unicorn. I have a 2 monitor set up. I have my gaming pc and my work laptop. I am looking for a hub that would allow me to connect the monitors to it with display port cables. Then the laptop would be connected through USB C(if possible with charging) or HDMI and pc connected with display port. And of course looking for one that would allow me to switch input with a press of a button. Does that kind of hub exist and would it impact performance in any way?

I don’t think you can achieve that with a single unit. I got a similar setup with 3 external monitors connected to a wavlink usb c dock (along with usb, Ethernet) and all I could come up with was to introduce a KVM switch into the mix. Triple monitor KVM switches are expensive (L1Techs sells one for $700), so I decided I might as well get 3 more monitors instead.

damn okay, When I was looking at some hubs most of them were just simple ones and were like 30-50 euros max, don't think I want to spend anything close to 700 dabloons for a hub/switch. I'll stick to switching source inputs on monitors if I can't find one xd
