grrrrrrr
ok i have a 24 inch at the moment and im looking for another one to have a twin setup,
now im starting to think maby i should be getting a twin 27 inch monitors
any advice greatly appreciated
 
What resolution are you aiming?
For 27", I would suggest the 1440p. For 32" and above, 4k. To be fair, 32" for 4k felt a bit small, but acceptable.
 
well i was sort of aiming for 1080p, but then i saw a review on youtube for A 27 INCH THINK 4K IS way out of my price budget, ive aleays wanted a 2 screen setup one looking at stuff on youtube the other doing something else, but starting to think 24 inch is too small?
 
IMO 4k on a 27" is a bad idea. You won't get the full benefit out of 4k as the screen is just too small. You'll also likely have to use scaling for windows, which isn't a great experience.

I'd highly recommend you try out a 4k 27" then a 4k 32" in person.

IMO 1080p on a 27” is pointless as you won’t get any benefit over a 1080p 24”, things will just look bigger.
 
i got this one in the end, i must say its amazing, going to get another one as well

Honestly, I still feel that 27" 1440p is the sweet spot for normal chair-to-monitor distance.

32" 1440p gives pretty much the same PPI as a 24" 1080p, so 27" 1440p actually offers an upgrade over 24".

My desk isn't that deep, and I do feel like I am too close my 32" at times.
