    Recommend a replacement for 2 24" 1920x1200 monitors

    https://www.displaywars.com/43-inch-d{32x10}-vs-34-inch-21x9 a nice tool to compare the sizes. Higher DPI will look really nice for text, but if you are fine with what you have now you also have the 34" 3440x1440 screens as an option to save some bucks. As already stated above, personally I...

    Recommend a replacement for 2 24" 1920x1200 monitors

    At that resolution DPI will be just slightly higher vs what you are replacing. If you work with text all day, I would get a 5k2k 34" instead. Or try a 16:9 4k 32" first (those are cheaper and I find them big enough to replace 2 smaller monitors).

    Help: Recommend me a monitor (27-32")

    There absolutely is too big, what that is depends on how you use it. In monitors 32" is the biggest I'd ever go (or 34-40" in ultrawide format), anything bigger is TV + big apartment (from the couch) since you must sit way too far for using it on the desk in front of you without excessive head...

    ASUS Swift PG27AQDM 27" OLED 1440P 240hz

    Exactly. What kills these for me is burn in and laughable PPI for 2023. Size wise 28-32" are both my upper limit depending on how deep your desk allows, but 4k is a must at those sizes and 5k preferred (not really available). Or equivalent ultrawide being the 34" 5k2k. Anything bigger you must...

    Why OLED for PC use?

    I unfortunately can't share your optimism. They had decades with this tech already and it seems to go nowhere (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OLED). Would love to be able to move on from LCD limitations for desktop use but I just don't see it happening anytime soon. Just purchased another IPS LCD...

    Why OLED for PC use?

    What kills OLED for me is potential burn in and reported less than stellar font rendering. At current prices they would need to last 10 years at least and I don't see any of them making it even half as long without burn in. I use my monitor at least 12 hours a day most of it being on static...

    Help: Recommend me a monitor (27-32")

    I used to think so, but after using one for 8 years it sometimes feels like it, since VA (washed out colors from an angle) and IPS (glow) limitations become very apparent on these, so a 28" can be a better compromise (that will hide those much better while also having better PPI). I do also sit...

    Help: Recommend me a monitor (27-32")

    Yeah, 32" 4k while great for replacing 2x setups for productivity does feel a bit too big for games (you do have the option to make a 30" 3840x1600 ultrawide out of it though with black bars for gaming). 28" 4k would have been a better pick (much clearer fonts and option to do 1080p integer...

    Trying To Decide Best Value 4K Monitor 30-34in - $1200.00 or Less - Your Expertise Appreciated

    Doubt they ever will, and the other elefant in the room with those monitors is the aggressive curve, even worse it is curved in the middle and flat on the sides, not a natural curve at all. Dell G3223Q 32-inch 4K Gaming Monitor - coworker had flickering issue with this in some games (I think...

    LG 32UN650 mini review - panel lottery still as bad as ever

    Recently pulled the trigger on a LG 32UN650-W. At around $350 price was too good to ignore. This is a 32" 4k 60hz monitor with 40-60hz FreeSync support (tested it in some games worked as advertised, saw no flickering on the desktop when left on either). While I am no professional photo editor...

    Sony Inzone Gaming Monitors

    Not being curved for one, IPS as well vs VA in the Neo. But it being 27" kills this for me. The retard curve kills the Neo offerings.

    As it seems there will never be a 16:10 with any gaming options I finally ordered a XG321UG to replace the 30" Dells

    You don't even need to auto-hide, just move it to one side instead of in the bottom and you actually have more vertical space than on a 16:10 30"-er https://www.displaywars.com/30-inch-16x10-vs-31,5-inch-16x9 I'd understand this if it was a debate on a 24" 16:10 vs 16:9 there it makes a huge...

    As it seems there will never be a 16:10 with any gaming options I finally ordered a XG321UG to replace the 30" Dells

    Drop in replacement for these are the new 32" 4k screens like others mentioned too and they actually got cheaper (see the lenovo L32P-30, LG 32UN650, etc) than the 30" dell/hp 16:10 were (I know cause I always wanted one of those but price was too steep). Unless of course you want extra features...

    Buying a 4k monitor for kids gaming and everything else that a casual home user does with his pc.

    Maybe read the original message and not what others interpreted it before accusing. I said text clarity benefits from 4k the MOST and stand by it, a benefit you get at no computational cost. Never did I say games won't benefit, but I don't consider it worth the cost for now, unless surprise...

    IPS or VA 32" Monitor with Little or No Anti-glare Coating

    Didn't own any of your list, LG is on the light side though (almost glossy actually), at least the screens I owned from them lately. Between IPS and VA I would stick to IPS, was dissapointed by all VA monitors I owned (they all had ghosting issues on some even visible in the browser while...
