Yeah, I tried a USB3 4K HDMI KVM, but it kinda sucked because you had to use an IR remote to control it, and also because it broke within 48hrs :-).<br>

I then went with the cheapest one I could find on Amazon that did 4K and had a physical remote switch to control it, and it's ... adequate. 3 USB ports are just enough to avoid needing a hub too.<br>
