1x curved or 3x flat panels for system monitoring?

PostSun May 05, 2024 2:05 pm

Hi

Time has come for me to increase the real estate of my system monitor (currently I'm using a single, flat, 2530x1080, 29" one with a 49" HDR TV hanging on the wall above it). And Since I never used a curved panels, I have a question which would be more practical:

- a single, curved 5120x1440 or
- three flat ones, each 24" and 1920x1200 resolution (with the special bracket allowing for positioning the left and right monitors at a slight angle relative to the middle one)?

Thoughts, please. TIA

Piotr

For Resolve, I recommend a single 32" 2160 monitor (flat).
My Biases:

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
