20% larger area compared to 50% larger area. Therefore, much more real estate going from 24 to 30 compared to 24 to 27.

OP already has 27" 1440p :p

Also, those comparisons aren't factoring in the increase in pixels. The horizontal increase is from 1920 to 2560 regardless of if a 27" or 30" is picked, those images make it look like there is more horizontal real-estate, which there isn't.

I was talking about me going from either a 24 to a 27, the 30 seemed like a bigger jump :)

Also, you're right about the pixel size, but the physical size was also important to me when comparing spreadsheets side by side. I'm getting on and my eye sight isn't what it was :p
