Don't even need that high budget for office use unless you are doing media work.

Ultra wide is not good for excel use because normally you need vertical space.

I guess depends on your spread sheet. I use normal widescreen and it is not enough o display all the column I use. Have to group columns that are least critical laugh.gif

Since I'm using desktop, both excel and CAD are on the same monitor. I rejected the laptop because it will mean bringing home work laugh.gif

For my case my spreadsheet will be more column so maybe wider might be better? Especially when dealing with gantt chart, currently I'm using 27 FHD for some more column spreadsheet need to scroll left & right. Actually I'm thinking to have 2 monitor but my dock have only 1 HDMI so maybe a wider screen will be the solution?
My spreadsheet will have more column. You are using 1 widescreen or 2? Any model to recommend? is better monitor will reduce eye fatigue?

I only use 1 wide screen. Just alternate which screen to see when required because I do not need to simultaneously see two different display at a time.

I think any LCD monitor will have same effect. You just need to adjust not only the brightness but also the color tone. From time to time I just walk to windows to look outside at distant object to relax eyes muscle. laugh.gif

I work in factory. An IT guy I knew swap a monitor meant for a machine so that I do not have to scroll too much. Now I'm using HP monitor. The model shows it is L2245wg

Been staring monitor more than 30 years in current and previous jobs. Luckily I still no need to wear glasses smile.gif

I use this one.. cheapest 4k monitor..quite good..the only downside of this monitor it's quite heavy and bulky

Before this I use 40 inch fhd and 22 inch fhd.. 32 inch 4k is quite nice to do office work

But still depends on your workspace

Yes, if you use bigger screen then the resolution also need to increase. If not can be tiring on eyes too.
