4k Monitor
 
Bestbuy had a deal on a 28" samsung 1ms response time 4k so I grabbed it.

I used to have an 29" LG super wide screen. I found it to be very narrow from a height perspective.

I'm glad I made the switch, even though it cost about $400ish.

I enjoy the real estate on the screen and how much richer the images appear. :)

If you're on the fence and can spare it, check out and compare some 4k monitors, even though 4k isn't widely supported, it might be what you're looking for. :)

I upgraded everything, my whole system, to 4k. I wasn't impressed.

We're you upgrading from a square box TV? (J/K hehe)

Should have bought a 55" TCL Roku 4k TV and just used that.

Unless you are doing some kind of specialized gaming, better off with more screen real estate.

I know what I'm talking about, you should have taken my advice. Now go feel bad about your purchase and experience buyer's remorse. :)

I was looking at the super-wide screens but many offered only 1024 screen height which I knew would be too small. I want at least 1440 but didn't find any, or any I liked anyway.

The 4K monitors are more interesting, but I think I would like to get dual 32" or 33" or in that range, maybe larger. Still undecided.

I have a Cinema 4k, native 4k. (4096 x 2160). Not UHD

And its been amazing. $1300+ for a 32" though

But yeah, things sure get small sometimes but i dont mind

Yeah, right now with Prime, $399 (no tax with Amazon).

https://www.amazon.com/TCL-55US5800-...keywords=4k+tv

I won't be getting any new displays for a long time. Eventually I can see myself getting 4, 4k displays covering an entire wall.

I live in a small house, I'll probably turn this into an office in the future.

the graphic card won't allow you to upscale the fonts etc?

it's a desktop thing.... my 'desk' is bigger. most apps let you upscale and the OS/video card does as well... I use 2560x1600 on dual 30's. so yeah I view websites at 200%. no big deal really. :2 cents:

28" at 4k sounds too small. Are you using windows scaling?

1080 displays should be fine for a while.

I will in the next few years upgrade to 3-4 4k displays. I'll probably have a setup where a wall in my house becomes my work screen.

I'm just waiting until some of the technology that can run 4k displays to get more robust. Recording software and other software I use (screen recording) isn't 100% with 4k yet.

When you have a 55" 4k display the resolution will be close to that of the 17-28" 1080p monitor or Pixels Per Inch.
