I am currently in the monitor market with about $600 to spend. I am looking between 27” and 32”. Do you prefer 27”? Will 32” be too big? Or is 27” too small?

I run two 27" 1440p Dell UltraSharp displays, one of which is currently in portrait mode. Personally, 27" is the sweet spot for 1440p resolutions, and 24" hits the right mark for 1080p resolutions, but it really does depend on what your workflow is too, because not everyone will benefit from 1440p, for instance.

Neither. Both are to small.

 

Additionaly,  it depends on the aspect ratio.

 

For me idealy I would want.

21:9 2160p    38" - 40"

32:9 1600p+  55" - 57"

16:9 8k          63" - 65"

Honestly, it depends on what size res you're going to use as well. For example, I like 23" at 1080p but 27" is too large for that. 

 

I also prefer ultrawide monitors however.
