How to choose a fuser

A fuser merges the picture of two PCs onto one monitor. The right one depends on one thing above all: your monitor's resolution and refresh rate. A fuser that can't keep up limits your main PC's picture, so pick one that matches or beats your monitor.

Step 1 — check your monitor

Step 2 — compare the models

Questions

Do I need a fuser for a two-PC setup?

Only if you want both PCs on one monitor. Without a fuser you need a second screen.

Does a fuser add latency?

Hardware fusers pass the main PC's picture straight through; models like the GodLike Fusion 4K Pro are built for lossless, real-time output.

Which fuser is best for 1080p 360 Hz?

The DC 4K120 Fuser or the GodLike Fusion 4K Pro; for more than 360 Hz, the DC505 or DC1A686.
