Hey All,

I'm current looking at re-configuring my current monitor which is a LG 34UC98 but I am thinking about changing it as I find it limiting in some ways, so I am not sure what to do with my monitor at the moment. The main uses for the screens are Gaming, Streaming, Photoshop / Lightroom, Premier etc..

So my options would be:

1. 2 x 27 144Hz Screens (IPS)
2. Upgrade the LG for a Asus or Acer 100 Hz Ultra wide.

So I thought id ask the wise people of OCUK.

Thanks. :)

I had a 2 x 27" (1080p 60hz) and now a X34A, I don't miss the 2 screens that much. It all depends on your usage I guess. Saying that, now with the football back on I like the idea of having 2 screens one to watch footy on the side while I game.

That's sort of one of the reason, I was looking at 2 X 27's as I can have one for gaming and the other for watching full screen YouTube or Twitch etc....

I'm completely undecided at the moment on which route to take.

Two 27" monitors would annoy me. For gaming you typically want one big screen in the middle, so if you've got two monitors it kinda makes sense for the second one to be smaller, or to just get three monitors. Unless you can put up with the uneven neck usage. :D

Id only use one monitor for gaming and the other for other stuff, its just I am completely un-decided on what to do at the mo.

After doing a lot of reading and working out what is important and including the list of games play, I'm going to order two Asus ROG PG279Q and sell my LG34UC98

Other than the dead pixels and the bad light bleed is there anything to be weary off with these monitors?
