Morning All
I am planning a new build to replace my 2011 gaming/workstation rig and I am just about settled on an internal configuration; however, I have not quite been able to determine whether my output 'dream' is achievable. The closest I have come to seeing something similar was Linus's setup using Thunderbolt.
Essentially I would like to keep a single rig in the office but then route it to displays in two rooms other than the office (probably via an HDMI switch). The idea is that I am going to give up on console gaming and invest instead into PC gaming. The cable runs from rig to display will be no more than 10m each.
My current thinking is to have HDMI cables running from a switch in the office to the two alternative displays and, in the same run, 10m USB 3.0 cables which terminate in the other rooms at a USB 3.0 hub into which I/O devices can be plugged to get around issues with wireless or Bluetooth signal.
This setup would result in up to three sets of I/O being connected to the rig at any time but I am confident there is no danger of overlap, mainly because it would be me at any display using those devices.
Does anyone have experience of anything similar by way of a setup and, if so, is there anything you think I have missed out that needs to be considered?
Thanks in advance.
