I use 3 x 1980 x 1200 monitors. All Dell. I prefer 1200 to the more standard 1080 height.  I was thinking about a single wide monitor but it is easier to snap windows to 3 different monitors, and run a video on one at full screen etc. Bu tI think it all depends on how you use your screens and desktop.

I had a pair of older exlease HP displays, they were the worst I have ever had. Really clear dithering patterns all over it from the low depth panel which IMO is inexcusable this side of 2005 but there they are sticking 6 bit junk into cheap as anything screens because some typist will never notice it while using word at their day job.

 

 

Huh, so after a quick google the pbtech ones I got are 6 bit panels, but with some tech which improves the colour range (FSC???).

 

Honestly, maybe I am some typist who will never notice using word at my day job. They look decent to me.

They may have improved it, but the dither was clearly at 60Hz on the ones i had so quite visible over the top of anything photographic of gameplay looking. I have been told that later ones drive the panel faster so the dither is less noticible to you might be ok.
