Which monitor would you recommend?

  You can usually pickup the S2721Q for $250-$279 during eBay and Dell sales. That would easily fit your budget.
  If you don't need the 4k, you could drop down to 2k@75hz with the S2721D for around the same price. That's a whopping 15 more hz.

  I can't easily see your monitor mounts, but I assume they are VESA? Certainly an interesting setup. I only know one song in your liked list :(

    Don't necessarily need the 4K. Just future-proofing the monitors I guess was my main thing.

    These are the monitor mounts that we bought a few years ago - https://www.dropbox.com/s/l5gnhmrmqukei8t/Screenshot%202021-…

    Certainly an interesting setup.

    The aim was to have a cleaner desk without monitor stands. It is a bit messy at the time of the pick.

    What song was that?

    Yeah, it is VESA - 100x100.

    I'll get the Dell ones. They seem to be a winner!

    Thanks everyone!

  Go with the Dell:
  - Better warranty when compared with Lenovo.
  - More connectivity.
  - PIP & PBP Support
  - Better looking.

  From what I read 4k is good on 32 inch ones 2k on 27 inch.

  Why not get 3 x 32" ?

    Not enough desk space nor would my mount arm cope with it. Max is 27" for the monitor arms.

  I like your setup @geekcohen

  I have 1 Dell S2721 (1440p, adjustable stand version). I think 3 would look great, nice slim bezels

  Just had to comment @geekcohen… what's it like working on websites where you:

  • use !important everywhere…
  • write in php 🤮
  • write inline css in your html 🤣
  • use… jquery but not as component driven plugins??!!? 🤢

  must be super gross?

  btw, someone is watching you through your webcam.
