Graphics card input

Hello,

I have run out of HDMI input slots on my monitor and have another device I would like to connect. I have looked into a HDMI 'switcher' button/remote type things that I think would do the job but just had a thought about graphics card input. I'm sure my card has a HDMI input. Anyone here use theirs in that way and how would I go about telling the card to show the hdmi input feed on monitor?

Thank you,

Yes sorry I should have phrased that better , i think i'm confusing myself with what I am trying to do.

I have a 3060ti card.

My monitor (it's actually an AIO but I only use the AIO bit for work) only has 1 HDMI input which I use for my gaming PC (with mentioned gfx card). I have another device (Pi type thing) that I am currently having to reach round back and swap over.

The Pi is right next to my gaming pc so can easily run a hdmi cable to that. But how would I tell the gaming PC to show the incoming Pi signal?

Thank you
 
That's helped a lot a lot thank you :) I've bookmarked that box and think that should work nicely.

I have the ideaCentre A540 AIO and although there is a display port on the back I think it is output only but will double check.
