Auckland?

 

How did you find that size? Assume you're not using any scaling. I have a 30" 2560x1600 monitor at the moment. I'm not sure if 43" is too big though. Probably need to use it for a few days to figure out if it's ideal.

I loved it! Only reason I am changing is because now I will sit too close to the monitor, otherwise it's super clear and I can pretty much have 4 full windows open at a time or 2 if I am needing to compare/scroll.

 

 

 

3840x2160 looks really nice, it's hard to go back to 1080 haha

 

 

 

EDIT: Yep, in Auckland

What distance do you sit to it? I typically sit 50-80cm (to eye) from my 30" depending on how I'm sitting (reclining in chair). My monitor sits just behind my keyboard.

 

An upgrade would be nice, just usually feels like a 'side grade'.

 

4K, HDR, 90htz+, size, IPS, colour gamut, increased PPI etc would all be nice - but doesn't seem to be anything yet, always have to compromise.

I have a 4k HDR 43" TV and sit JUST within arm's reach (if I stretch, my fingertips just touch the screen) and I find it absolutely perfect!
