Hi all, my other half wants a gaming monitor to go with his gaming tower and also a desk. Our problem is that we have limited space. We use the tower with our normal TV to watch shows etc on in our living room. The only space we have for a computer table and chair is in our bedroom which is next door. 

My thought originally was to have a wire winning from one room to the other that will connect the tower to the pc (VGA is it), that would work but what about the mice and keyboard, they are both wireless.

So then I thought ok if we put everything in the bedroom is there some sort of device that will allow us to connect out TV in the front room to the tower in the bedroom so we can continue to watch shows or whatever??

    No need to go this typical method. 

    I would suggest you to get HDMI or VGA ( whichever you prefer ) cable which can be connected from your bedroom to living room ( Place where your desktop is ).

    Certain monitors have USB hub. You can simply connect your wireless keyboard/Mouse receiver and experience its benefits in your bedroom.
