So I have a quad monitor gaming rig set up right now so I can have netflix, game, stock and a floating monitor I use for random things as needed. The GPU is EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti Hybrid (https://goo.gl/RLrMBq) and the monitors are using the HDMI 2.0 and the 3x Display Port 1.2 directly out of the back of the GPU with no adapters or splitters.
The laptop in question is my work laptop its a horrible Lenovo T440 that I would like to dock into the ThinkPad Ultra Dock - 90W US (seen here https://goo.gl/vkdQxF) and be able to utilize both at the same time. My experience with laptop docks is exactly zero and I havent used a physical KVM in half a decade so trying to wrap my head around this problem made it hurt.
Ideally I would like to have my gaming rig up and running and come home and throw the Lenovo on the laptop dock and just have it pop up usable with the same keyboard and mouse as a 5th screen maybe? or even better a 5th screen that also takes over one of my top monitors for a dual screen setup for the laptop and a 3 screen setup for the PC?
Anyways I am open to trying anything I am not sure how much I can install on this work laptop if we go with a software solution so that could be a hitch but money is no object as the company is getting the tab so go crazy if you need to!
