Hi, I am replacing my recent spoilt Dell S2722DGM which is a 27" 1440p VA panel,165Hz monitor. I have a desk of 140 cm x 70 cm. I have been using the 27" for a few years and find it quite comfortable and a good fit. Now that I am buying a new one. Considering to upgrade to 32" but having a concern that will the 32" too big and will fell tired on the eyes easily for my setup? I usually sit around 2ft away. But can still maximize the space to 2.5 ft away. I use it mainly for web browsing, light work, movie and mainly gaming.

Did some research and currently eyeing on the new LG monitor. Also planning to upgrade my graphic card from GTX1660S to RTX 4060Ti in a few months.
1. 27GS85Q ( 27" 1440p Nano IPS)
2. 32GS85Q-B ( 32" 14440p Nano IPS)

I'm using 32" curved Dells at home (2k gaming) and office (4k)

~3 feet away is ideal, no issues

Hi, do you use it with the stand or arm ? with the bigger screen do you need to constantly like moving your head around when looking ?

At office, using the arm

At home using stand

If ~3 feet distance, eyes definitely need to move, head movement is minimum

For watching movies, it's not too big. For gaming, it's a bit too big

Ok, but what about the text? like when browsing the internet and using Microsoft word and excel. Is it clear and do you use it on 100% size ?

For gaming by too big, how does it feels? Is it a bit dizzy ?

2k gaming monitor is on 100% text

Why is this even a concern? You can make it whatever size that is comfortable for your use ...

I see, I usually use on 125% on my previous 27", just concern if 32" with 2K will it be not so clear. But I guess it should be fine.

You'll be fine at 125% on 2k

32 inch monitor may be a bit large to you based on your desk size. But you will get used to it eventually. My desk is 120cm x 60cm, and I enjoy my 32inch monitor.

But one advice. If you decide to switch to 32 inch, go for 4K. You will thank me later.

If you insist to stick to 1440p , then you better stay at 27 inch.

Golden rules for monitor:

24 inch = 1080p
27 inch = 2k
32 inch = 4k


125% on 32" is definitely more blur compared to 27".

Use arm, if feel too big when gaming then move it further behind.

Thanks for the tips. If I run it with the 4060Ti, will it be a good fit for 32" 4K ?

Hi, any brand recommended ?

Thanks for sharing your experience, will see my budget and consider the 32" 2K. It seems quite a bargain on the price for 32' 2K.

49inch. 4k Bravia.
50cm distance.

Gaming, Entertainment, Movie.

+lossless scaling to push to 4k ultra quality 60fps with just RX6600Xt

no its not too big, I'm on 42" Panasonic LED TV, 1080p. it's so relaxing no need eye focus on something tiny.

i have got a custom 3feet depth table, with a chair probably about 4feet + away?

I thought LYN forumers are mostly gen-x... by now should have Presbyopia by now.

Im actually liking 1080P on 32inch and I had to scale 175% on my brand new 27" on 1440P.

Mainly gaming 27 1440p.
32 make you tired and 4060ti cannot take 4k.
For FSP you need latency speed. 32 on 4060ti does not cut it.
Special tips for you.Use Maxis fiber. If you use unfi for gaming you will not understand how powerful is high end pc.
