  • This is my home office dual laptop desk setup. I built this in 2020 to mainly work from home. The idea of this setup is to enhance productivity and make the best use of tech that is available without breaking the bank. I use a USB Switcher to switch between 2 laptops, I use an external Alienware amplifier to prolong the life of my dying Alienware 15R2 laptop. See the video for more details and please subscribe.

    Are you just swapping the source input on the monitor when you switch back and forth? I've been thinking of getting a KVM switch but it seems it will bottle neck the frames on my gaming pc

    • @TechieSnake
      @TechieSnake  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The monitors are connected directly to the laptops so I just switch the source inputs. KVM switch is ok for peripherals. I have not experienced it for switching different monitors though

    Hello! where can we get the laptop stand (does it also come with the leather storage or is it custom-made)? thanks!

    • @TechieSnake

      Hi, sorry for late reply. You can get on Amazon. There are many types and you can buy which one suits you the most

    I am still searching for a dual laptop stand above each other. But if you search only dual monitor stands pop up. Bloody Google. 😢

    • @TechieSnake
      @TechieSnake  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      One is my personal laptop and the other is my work laptop which has restrictions from my employer. So I need to have both. I cannot install my work apps on my personal and vice versa

  • @lucasalbero7366

    I liked your idea a lot, im having the same problem and this could be my solution. How do you turn the dell notebook on with the lid closed?

    • @TechieSnake
      @TechieSnake  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s the only challenge I had. I usually keep the lid open so I used the button directly.
      Thanks for commenting and glad it helped you

    Good video! I am also looking for a two system single monitor solution and I think the key is really a good dock/hub system. What refresh rate do you get on the monitor with the current Dell dock? I currently use DisplayPort for my monitor which is running at 144Hz, however I think some docks don't support that, only the standard 60Hz

    • @TechieSnake
      @TechieSnake  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks.
      You are right, docking station is important.
      I believe mine is at 60hz at 2k resolution.
      You need to look for a dock that supports your max refresh rate at the resolution of your monitor.

    Isn't that vertical stand blocking the Dell exhaust vents??

    • @TechieSnake
      @TechieSnake  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No. The exhausts are on the sides and not backside.

    Hi, how do you switch the monitor between laptops? Don't think it's likely for the Ugreen switch to be able to do this.

    • @TechieSnake
      @TechieSnake  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Using the monitor button to switch. It has a joystick to toggle between inputs.
      Also it automatically detects the one which is on incase only one system is on.

    sorry i didn't understand how did you switch between your laptops ?

    • @TechieSnake
      @TechieSnake  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I use a multi USB switch for the keyboard and mouse.
