G-sync doesn't work with external components

I only have 2 problems with this device: 1. G-sync doesn't work with the device. I can connect my computer directly to the monitor and G-sync works fine. As soon as I connect it to KVM, G-Sync is disabled. I'll try a higher quality cable just to see if KVM is the limiting factor here.2. No cables. I realize that in a professional setting, there is a chance that cables will already be provided and that IT professionals installing this equipment may have unique needs that this equipment may not necessarily meet. I think two units should be sold. One could be a professional kit with just a switch, while the other could be a home kit with a switch and a set of standard length cables. Otherwise it's a solid device. I tested 2 other KVMs before finally deciding to spend money on this device. It works great, front and rear USB 3.0 ports are great.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Modern
