Here is my current setup,

2 VGA Monitors Mouse & Keyboard Speakers

I would like a KVM switch that would allow me to use both monitors as consoles and then connect computers to the KVM Switch so I can assign each computer to one monitor. I haven't really been able to find a solution for this in my searching.

I don't need dual monitors on any of the computers.

Does there exist such a product or would I be better off getting two KVM switches?

  • You means, each computers connect to one monitor each, and using the KVM switch only for the keyboard and mouse ?

  • no the monitors would be connected to the KVM switch as well, however the KVM switch would allow you to toggle which monitor belongs to which computer Commented Mar 29, 2012 at 22:11

Several manufacturers have switches like this, but they're expensive since they're usually designed for connecting 4, 8, or 16 computers to 2 or 4 consoles.

Are you are looking for a K_M switch? For switching just the keyboard and mouse and leaving the video set statistically 1:1.

If this is your goal, there is a software solution called Synergy. Each monitor is physically connected to each tower. Its meant to be a software Keyboard and mouse switch.
