my GTX 750, yes 750, not even the ti version, runs 4k, two 24" and will play even the latest games (not at full spec ,obviously) All this on a I-5 quad chip. No need for the latest and greatest every 2 years if you buy right and keep it tuned.
Odd how people in a few posts compare hi res monitors with multiple monitors.How one thing relates to another?...Is an ass and finger the same thing for you guys?
I couldn't imagine myself working at 60" monitor. I am now sitting on 24" for many many years and I still do not want to go anything higher than 27" for example. My eyes and overall health I think will be broken cause of so big size of screen in front of me.
well. depends on what and how you trade. If I were to start on clean sheet of paper, I'd get five or six 32" monitors, portrait format. for 60" monitor, it will be very difficult to see if it is in portrait format. I might even consider two 60" monitors , landscape format, stacked vertically.
I had an array of six 28" 1920x1200 monitors. Two high, three across, landscape. Worked great. But I had to move my head to see the top section of the top row, and from side to side. Since I had the monitors, I tried three in a row in portrait. This also worked well. But just didn't have the realestate I needed. (I should have tried four in portrait, but didn't) I went to a 55" 4K LED TV with HDMI and the motion processing could be turned off. I run that in landscape to replace four of the six monitors, with one of the 28" to the left in landscape. The 55" is sitting on my desk around a foot in. My viewing distance is 34", centred in the left half of the 55", with the right side of the 55" angled around 3" closer towards me. The 28" on the left aligns with the 55" and is angled towards me. Before going to the 55", I checked the pixel realestate and the physical sizes. As expected, The 4K displayed less, but it lost the strip across the top that I'd had to lift my head to read, so good riddance. I had 'computer' glasses made, for a 34" viewing distance, whatever that adjustment to prescription was. Now I can look anywhere on the 4K by only moving my eyes, although I find I make small head movements for ease of viewing. The entire 4K area plus the first half of the 28" is covered by my field of view, so visual alerts are within my peripheral vision. I move my head significantly less and less distance, than when I had the six-up, due to losing the strip across the top and the pixel/info is displayed together instead of having to travel eyes and head further due to monitor bezels. The lost strip isn't large, so I was surprised at how much of a difference this made. I find it very easy to position windows on the 55" such that important info is in the bottom 2/3 and less important in the top 1/3, and less important to the far right, and the next lower tier info off on the 28" monitor. A curved 55" might be better, but I've no issue with the flat view. Viewing curved 55" in stores doesn't have me thinking it would provide a noticeable benefit. If they were the same price, I'd get flat in this size - for this viewing distance (34"). If I had to view a 65" at this distance (34"), I'd want a curved screen. It's been three years and three months with this setup. I would never go back to the six-up. Screen shots and layouts to follow. I still find I have less important info on windows hidden behind my normal collection, which I can click on in the status bar and have it/them displayed in front, expanding/collapsing as needed. So, I'll be going to the following setup. My next setup: Will get the same view by putting a 65" 4K on the wall, for ~48" viewing distance. That will display my usual up-front info that was on the 55". A second 65" 4K will go on the wall above the main 65", angled downwards, and will display the various windows that I used to have to mouse over to click on to open. I'll have to tilt my head up, but no mouse/clicking/opening delay or fumble possible, and these are infrequently viewed, but when I want them, I want them now! The 55" will replace the 28", and go on the left in portrait, angled towards me. My core info will be displayed in the bottom left 2/3 of the bottom 65". Everything else supporting that will be immediately visible on the remaining realestate.
Six-up 3x2 28" 1920 x 1200 vs. 55" 4K. Screenshot of desktop: 28" 1920x1200 with 55" 4k, to compare realestate.
If you calculate the pixel per inch, the 55" monitor has slightly worse resolution. I like the new Samsung U32H850, 32" monitor. it has excellent 4K resolution, and cheaper then its older model S32D850T (2K resolution only).
i saw a 40inch samsung curved monitor and can be configured into multiple frames, but not sure if it will work as if multiple separate monitors
problem with curved monitor is that it doesn't make sense to have it in portrait format. portrait format is good when you want to utilise table space effectively.
