Should I get two monitors (27") or just one 34" monitor?
Two 27" monitors total width is around 1000-1100mm
One 34" monitor width is around 810-820mm
Purpose: Multi browser (youtube/watch streams/movie)
two monitors (27") or one 32/34" ?

As I mentioned Acer Predator XB271HU is 165Hz 1440p monitor and the other is Acer Predator XB281HU 60Hz 4K monitor. So i chose to use the 4K monitor as movie monitor as my GPU might not be up to the task. ahha. Using GTX 1080 Ti Mini. And i dont mind gaming in 1440p instead of 4K xD rather watch movie in 4K than game in 4K. haha.. My thoughts la.. xD And mind sharing the models?  |

QUOTE(AthrunIJ @ Jul 26 2023, 07:24 AM) 4k movies kut. you can play at 4k full screen but game internally still can run 1080/1440As for gaming I think because the lower resolution helps with fps. then you can enable image sharpening in your LCD or via GPU driver. i never play games at exclusive fullscreen mode due to slow alt-tab switching. |
