    Great video. Would you have recommendation for docks that are similar to this one but with KVM ?

    I can’t think of any that would also have displaylink, but if that’s not something you care about you could pick up one from UGREEN for around 60 bucks that would do two hdmi inputs

    thx for the video, 2 things I didn't understand, So if you have the mic connected to the dock and u switching from Mac to gaming PC, u will have to unplug it and plug it to the PC ? and, does it support 2 output monitor, I noticed the secondary monitor didn't change ?

    If you wanted that use the same mic on PC then yes, you’d need to plug it into PC since it’s not going to switch peripherals. It supports 3 total monitors on your laptop connection, but only the hdmi 2.1 port is the one that switches. So the screen you saw stay constant was still displaying my laptop while the main monitor was able to jump between pc and laptop with a quick tap

    hey there! great info, do I need to install an extra software to manage all the monitors as 3 x extended displays in the MAC PRO MAX M1? Asking you because currently I am using a DELL D6000 dock that manages 3 x monitors BUT I need to have DISPLAYLINK MANAGER tool on MAC in terms I have those working (something I want to avoid buying this BENQ DP1310). Thanks in advance for your confirmation! Kudos

    You’d still need the displaylink software for this one in order to run the additional displays. I’m really not aware of any best alternatives either unless you just went with a thunderbolt dock (which won’t offer the input switching) or a larger kvm switch from TEsmart

    Have you been able to get 4k 120hz out of this with a Mac? I have the same doc but no matter what I try it won't output 120

    I haven’t tried too much to make my Mac go above 60hz on an external, but from the Apple website it seems the outputs over Thunderbolt are 4,6, and 8k but only at 60hz, while it mentions 144 and 240 for using the integrated HDMI port. So maybe the high refresh rate is only reserved for that?

    it's great, but too bad it's so expensive

    It's definitely not the cheapest dock on the market. Since it's their first try at a dock like this I can see why it's priced like it is, but with more feedback from potential customers it certainly helps direct what we might see next. What are you looking to add to your setup next?
