Just picked up a Dual Link DVI-D Korean monitor. I'd like to upgrade in a few months to a 4k DisplayPort monitor, and don't really want to buy (and subsequently sell) two high end KVM switches. If I can use a DP KVM with a DVI Adapter, that would be ideal.
Here's what I'm thinking of trying:
DisplayPort output from Laptop and Gaming PC -->
DisplayPort Cables -->
DisplayPort KVM -- >
Active DisplayPort to Dual Link DVI Adapter -->
Dual Link DVI-D Cable -->
Korean Monitor
Then... when I upgrade, I'll simply remove the old monitor and active adapter, and be all set to use only the DisplayPort KVM.
