Hi,

Just wondering what the best monitor combination is for my needs.

I currently use a 40" 4k samsung TV as my monitor for programming which I saw pretty heavily recommended on here a few years ago (https://www.overclockers.co.uk/foru...amsung-40ku6400-as-a-monitor.18756127/page-20)

And just a 1080p 144hz monitor for gaming.

I play CS/Valorant/Fortnite and always play on the lowest settings and lower resolutions where I can so don't really care what the game looks like.

I don't really like how the current setup looks on my desk and am considering getting either one or two 27" 1440p 144hz monitors but not sure if that's the best thing to do.

I'm not sure how I'll find playing games on them but am sure they'll be good for working on.

If anyone has any suggestions they would be much appreciated!

I use a Dell S2721DGF 27" 165hz monitor for gaming/coding (coupled with a secondary 1080p monitor, 2 or more screens are very useful for work). I play all sorts of games and its great for them all.

Big thread on it here.

Lots of screens around this bracket though and the majority would be totally fine for your needs.
