Afternoon,
So i have personal laptop, work laptop and desktop on my desk with 2 monitors. As i use the work laptop daily, i have a hub which uses USB-C into the work laptop. I can also quite comfortably remove the USB-C and plug into my personal laptop. But how can i use my desktop in a similar fashion? it doesnt have a USB-C port. I had previously bought DP-HDMI cables but they didnt work as i didnt know it wasnt a simple adaptor
I was thinking or hoping for the following:
1. HDMI splitter on the cables into the hub
2. USB-C adaptor for desktop (ideally this but after searching the internet, im not sure its possible and i dont want to dive in like i did with the previous adaptors!)
3. new DP/HDMI adaptors or cables
Help and suggestions welcome
Thanks
