First and foremost - taking a shortcut here. Time-poor at the moment, so figured, I know somewhere there is a heap of opinions and people that might have something in mind… so… here I am posting a new thread today!
x360 Spectr w/GeForce GTX - so driving the screen just fine at 120hz in 5k. (Edit: Chenged the setting for G-SYNC and now pushing 240Hz).
Sammy 49" G9 Odyssey.
Also, have a work notebook (Dell) with 5k capability just fine.
Want to just plug in one cable (or two), to drive the b@5tard instead of worrying about extra crap. May turn to using the monitor KVM function also, not yet decided.
At this point - looking at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086DXLF37/
100w also doubles up as a charger for the x360 as well. So good bit of gear, good price and ticks all the boxes, except, looks to only drive 4k at 30Hz (3x screen) and can't tell what it would do for 1x 5k or the likes.
Any recommendations from the Brady bunch here with my fellow OzB members…?
Looks fine to me if all you want is display + PD.
Though personally, I think it is a waste to drive it with a low powered integrated laptop GPU. About the only thing that fully utilises that full aspect ratio are games, so I would've thought most people would only consider it if they plan on playing games on it
If you must use it with a laptop, personally I would lean towards an eGPU (though you will easily spend 10x more due to current market conditions) or better yet hook it up to a full sized computer
