Hi all,

 

I'm new to the forum and this is my first post


I'm currently owning a MSI WT75 8SM with 8700 and QUADRO P3200.

 

As I work a lot at home I want to setup a dual monitor in order to increase my productivity because I have the need for 2 monitors as I work mainly with 3d models.

 

I don't want to spend that much, probably up to 300$ each monitor.. I wanted to find a budget solution and I prefer 27" monitors. From what I've read I will have to go with a 2k monitor, since 1080p is not good at 27" monitors. 


I hope you guys could give me a hand in choosing my new monitors


Best regards

For productivity should I also consider 24" monitors?

 

Or should I stick to the idea of having 27"?

 

I mainly work with engineering models, 3d etc..

I think that is a very personal preference. Have you worked with 24" and 27" monitors before? 

I personally use 24" monitors because high pixel density and I don't love huge screens.

...and also my desk can barely fit a 24" so.

I use 24" currently at work. I've never worked it 27" but after working everyday with 24" I guess I wouldn't mind having a bigger screen. I'm also checking some ultrawide options, I guess a 34" will equal two 24" and I won't get the middle bezels interfering
