Alright folks,

Anyone running a 23/24 inch next to a 27?

My main display is the ROG Swift but want a little IPS panel next to it for streaming whilst playing etc. I'm thinking of running the 23" portrait though, so if anyone has a photos of that setup that would be great :)
 
Well I went and bought a PA238Q for a mere £180. However, I've noticed there is a PB238Q out now. I can't really see the differences but believe the backlight bleed is better on the PB? But doesn't come colour calibrated? Anyone shed some light?
 
I'm currently running a ROG swift with a 24" next to it in landscape though as portrait is way too tall for me whilst sat at it. till I get another 27" sorted later.
 
Yep, ROG swift as my main monitor and a Dell 2407-HC (that was my main monitor before the swift) as a secondary to the side. Works perfectly for me. As others have said I wouldnt put the 24" in portrait as it would be too tall. For me the Dell works perfectly as a movie screen whilst I work on the swift.
 
I'm running a Dell U2715H as my primary monitor, with my older 2407WFP to the left.
Prior to the U2715H, I had a Shimain 1440p, but that died :(

I do a decent amount of 3D & development, and my normal workflow is to keep the code on the main monitor and output, media player and other assorted junk on the second.
If I'm gaming, it displays a clock, calender and CPU/ GPU widgets.

Biggest thing I'll say is that if you're considering this, you need height and tilt adjustment on at least one and preferably both monitors.
The U2715H is much better in this regard than the Shimian, and it's much more comfortable being able to tweak both monitors.
