Really doubting about this....

by FreemanPR1

Hi guys,

Can I connect an Android TV Box or a FireStick ñ connected to my PC monitor 1080p 200GHz with my PC already turned off using with my PC an DP cable? And if the FireStick or TV Box is turned off, my PC boots normally? Any answer will be appreciated.

Bests,

The PC has nothing to do with the monitor. They are entirely separate things.

Yes you can connect your Chromecast with Google TV to your monitor if it has a an hdmi input. You just have to change the input on your monitor. If you have auto detect on your monitor enabled, it will detect the active device and switch automatically.

Yeah, providing that you're using different input for each device.

For example, (ignore that I'm using HDMI, you can use any port) HDMI 1 would be your PC, and HDMI 2 will be your Android TV device. Your monitor will automatically change the source (display) the one that is turned on. If both are turned on, then your monitor likely has buttons so you can change it yourself.
