I have my new gaming PC arriving soon and I’m utilising the two screens that I have for my laptop office setup. This uses a Dell docking station with mouse and keyboard.

What’s the “best” way to be able to switch between gaming PC and laptop/docking station?

I’m aware of KVM switches but not sure how this would work with a docking station (if at all)
Then main concern is would gaming through a KVM cause any significant issues (ie lag…)

I’ll keep reading articles but as always advice on here is pretty solid.
(Sorry it’s on monitor section..couldn’t think where to put it)
 
Gone for a simple HDMI switch (£8), will see how it works.
Not sure how to sort mouse/keyboard yet but probably another switch when I get fed up with having to change between gaming stuff and cheap work keyboard etc
