Purchased 22" Spectre with a native 1680x1050 resolution. Have a Startech KVM now with PS2, audio and VGA that works great in analog. I want to move to DVI based USB and Sound KVM. The only two that I have found with decent reviews for under $200 street are:

Avocent Switchview Dvi 2 Port USB KVM Switch USB 2.0 Hub with Audio
http://www.amazon.com/Switchview-D [...] B000A7NR80
- Comes with no cables

and. . .

Gefen 2X1 Dvi KVM Switcher
http://www.amazon.com/Gefen-Inc-EX [...] 167791051/

Both run around $150 give or take $25. I would like to keep the cost to under $200 for a good, solid switcher. Any experience out there?

Oh, both systems (only two PCs) will run same, native resolution on LCD. One has a 7600GT and the other a 6600 I think. . .

I cant say i have tried out DVI switches myself, BUT I do have some experience with analogue VGA switches. I have had a few different ones in the past, but my latest is a Belkin, and I have to say its the best of the bunch, picture is stable and crisp, you cant tell the image is running through a switch at all. Haven't tried those makes you mention, but I can thoroughly recommend a belkin
