Hi,

Looking at finally replacing my monitor and want to look at getting two 27/28" inch 4k monitors and running one in portrait and one in landscape (so hopefully thin bezels) and VESA mount. The majority for the usage will be for when I'm doing development work and working with peoples design files but also the occasional gaming session. I also will have both my MacBook via a Thunderbolt 4 dock and my PC that needs to connect to them both so I was thinking of a monitor that has KVM ability built in.

I was originally going to look at the LG 27GP850-B but that no longer seems to be available and I think the replacement (27GP95RP-B) seems a lot more expensive and just in pre-order stage.

My other two options were the Gigabyte M28U or the HP Omen 27K. Any other recommendations I could look at that would fit my use case or of the two I've listed which is better and why?

Many thanks
 
Don't forget that you can rotate the portrait monitor both ways for the thinnest bezel. I have three monitors, two 27" 4k stacked one above the other - the bottom one is my Acer Nitro XV273k 120 Hz Freesync gaming monitor, the top a Lenovo L28u-35 60 Hz Freesync monitor which has thin bezels on three sides - and the third is a 24" 4k Dell Ultrasharp in portrait mode.




Do you have any sort of remote desktop facility to obviate the need for a KVM?

I'm not sure if I'd like the experience of having to Remote Desktop in to MacBook and that is the primary device I use and the other way wouldn't work due to the gaming performance being a bit rubbish remote. I could do what I have currently been doing and just swap USB cables around each time if you felt there was a screen that was worth getting that didn't have the KVM ability.
