Hi,

I need some suggestion on a 2nd monitor which I would most probably be using for Netflix, surfing, some productivity for work (MS office)

I have a main screen that is 34inch curved 3440x1440 @ 165hz with 1ms.

I am considering this Samsung M5 27/32 inch.

The setup will be mounted above my main screen, doubt my table can have a 27inch next to my 34 inch monitor side by side with a laptop at the other end.

Let me know any other monitor I should consider?

Samsung Smart Monitor M5 27" FHD S27AM500NE (LS27AM500NEXXS),

Thanks
Andrewtst

If you want constant look, you should pick a 1440p 27" monitor.

You will getting a same size desktop and same height both monitor if you are getting a 27" 1440p monitor.

Cool. So a 27inch 1440p mounted on top (stacked) would be the way to go then.

Back to the drawing board on the types of monitors out there... don't need a high refresh rate.. just a 1440p 27 inch maybe at 75hz or something...

Also, anyone knows if it's possible to have 1 of the HDMIs plugged in with a Chromecast so that I can Netflix on that screen natively without straining my GPU when I'm gaming.
