So pretty much, I need help on figuring out what to buy for my situation.


I have a PS4 and a PC, I want to hook them both to my monitor via display port, I have a hdmi to display port adapter for my PS4, I just need like a switch so I can pretty much change which device I want to run on the monitor.

Is this possible? If so I will rep whom ever helps find a few of the items I need. Willing to rep for help, not too expensive.

So what you're saying is that you'll be using your PS4 and PC on the same monitor?
If you intend on using both simultaneously, you can use the side buttons on the monitor to switch inputs.. that's what I do!

My Xbox One is plugged in via HDMI and my PC is done via VGA to DSUB

My monitor only has 1 display port, so their are no input buttons. I need like some device/adapter to connect 2+ devices to so I can just switch the inputs on the adapter or what ever.
