I don't know if these even exist but I'm sick of pulling my monitor and pushing plugs in when I want to use something else (PC/Console etc)
Is there anything that I can plug into the back of my monitor that then comes down into a box where I can plug two into?
Or something along those lines, brand new expensive monitor will break in days if i keep pulling it like I am

Cheers mate, That seems pretty ideal. Is there perhaps one that you plug both of them into a box then just flick a switch on the box for whichever one you want? I used to have one of them for a scart lead
The one you posted will be fine though if there isn't the above, cheers bud

You want a KVM swith. Plug in 2 computers (or xbox etc) then switch between the two. They also switch keyboard and mouse, just ignore that part.

Would this work? Just click the button to switch between the two devices?
