User wants to upgrade their WFH setup to accommodate both a gaming PC and a work laptop, seeking advice on how to make the two systems work together efficiently without needing separate setups.
Hello lovely folks, I've recently upgraded to a flexispot standing desk and I would love to purchase a new gaming PC. Yes I know it's bad timing to be buying a PC, but I've only recently got the space for it. Trouble is I have no clue how to upgrade my WFH setup to still be compatible with my works laptop whilst switching to the gaming pc on the weekend or evenings. My works laptop is a Dell latitude 9420. I have a docking station (dynabook brand) and a small Dell monitor (I believe its 60hz) which I'd like to replace with a wider monitor. I have a single flexispot monitor arm is on its way. I would love to game at the highest graphic settings, maybe 4k even, but I'm realistic. Do I need to stick with a 60hz monitor in order to still be compatible with my works laptop? Or would a 120hz be ok? I don't have the space to have a fully separate gaming setup, so I have to make my current WFH setup work with both. I've not purchased the PC or new monitor yet as any help, guidance and advice would be very greatly appreciated! Thank you!
