5760x1080 vs 3840x2160

[OneManArmytstead]

Hello I'm posting today because I'm stuck between a the new "affordable" 4k monitor in Linus' new video or 3x Ben Q RL2455HM I want to know if people have experience with 4k and their opinion on it. Personally having 3 monitors gives you a greater looking setup however if 4k is truly amazing i might be able to give up the dream of of triple monitors. There in similar price ranges still with the 4k monitor being more expensive but i'd willingly play that bit extra if 4k is really that good.

 

P.s i know there's a similar thread but that was before 4k was in a similar price range to triple 1080p monitors.

I'd get a 4k honestly, I don't use my 3 1080p setup in surround/eyefinity often.

It really depends on if your GPU can handle 4k.

single 4k all the way.

however i would still wait for better monitors to come out. Try again at the end of the year.

4k is actually pretty bad for daily use as @digitalnav can confirm

As someone that has actually tried both, I prefer the immersion you get from surround VS the extra pixel density you get from 4K. Obviously it depends on the types of games you play and the kind of GPU horsepower you have, so your mileage may vary.

5760x1080 is 3k. 3840x2160 is 4k.

3x 1080 for productivity... 4k for gaming

I would like to emphasize that it's my personal opinion, so make sure you do your own research before spending such amounts of money Anyway, if you have any questions I'll try my best to answer. Good luck!

Actually 8.1/s new scaling does a good job. I take back my previous statement.

Yeah but i was only going to go for the 4k option if 4k really wowed someone as it's being my dream for  years to have a triple monitor setup so you'd have to be really convincing to make get a 4k monitor

I have a 3x rl2455hm setup and quite frankly the colours blow. If you do get this setup get a color calibration tool and see if you can make them look the same. Otherwise 3x small is better that 1 4k screen at least for me
