Briefly, I have a gaming PC in my living room that I use for games and all TV entertainment(shows and movies I have loaded onto the computer). I want the same movies and TV shows in my bedroom. It would be a good $150 less to use my PC in both rooms.
PC:
Intel i5 3570k
GTX 760 Super Clocked
Windows 7 OS
My Questions:
HDMI. I want to run 2 cables from the PC. One to the LR using the HDMI port on the GTX760, the other to the bedroom using the HDMI port on the motherboard. Does that work?
Control. I use a wireless mouse and keyboard in my living room. Is connecting a different set in my bedroom using about 50 feet of USB with repeater ok?
Thank you!!

no i do not think that will work just because of the 50 foot usb cable length you state, i believe usb has a max working cable length of about 15 foot.
never actually having set up a similar system, i think i'd be looking at some sort of kvm extender, something similar to this :- http://www.amazon.co...mi kvm extender
