Replacement for Samsung S27A850D 27" IPS?

Trojan Horse · 24 Jan 2016 at 04:06

Bit of a misleading title, not a direct replacement but I have a nice 27" Samsung S27A850D and I want to add another monitor.

Perhaps looking at triple monitor setup later down the line. I have a 290X and if I do play games it will only be on the one screen, but would like the extra screen real estate and the pixels of 2k for graphics and programming etc.

I can't seem to find the Samsung S27A850D for sale, anywhere! So what's my next best move to get a monitor very similar in bezel and quality so I can move documents around freely and get a uniform, pro, look?

Thanks.

also is it worth getting monitor calibration or should i just use a tftcentral color profile?

Which sadly has a slimer bezel I believe than your current model.

Damn it!

Do you think I should sell my current one -reckon how much I'll get for it? And spend 1-2k on a proper man-cave setup so I'll never have to worry about screen estate? I don't want to spend more than 2k though, but what are some excellent monitors I should triple with, OR, should I go 4K? (I don't want to game at 4K, but probs will resize res to 1440p and then game on it anyway haha)
