27 inch, 1080p?

Fireball927

Hello everyone :)

I am consider buying a 27inch 1080p monitor to compliment my new ASUS 24 inch monitor. This would be my main monitor so I was wondering, is 1080p a high enough resolution for a larger monitor? I don't have the power to run a 1440p monitor, and quite frankly, just don't have the money.

I am considering the following:

Thanks in advance :)

If it were me, I would buy another 24 inch monitor. After 24 inches, 1080p starts to look bad.

 

Or you could save up, and buy a 1440p monitor. :)

A 1440p monitor for me would be quite expensive considering the fact I'd have to buy a new GPU (upgrade from a 760) and the monitor. :)

I'll probably get another 24inch then. And I guess that will set me up for a 3rd later :3

3 monitors would be cool. ;)

24 inches is pretty much the limit for 1080p (at least when using it moderately close). 22 inches is perfect for 1080p monitors.

Went for a 27" 1080p monitor after I sold my 23" 1080p one. can't really tell the difference, and this is coming from a complete sharpness\quality ocd man.. I couldn't really spend too much on a monitor, and where I'm from they are allot more expensive than in the US plus there is a significant lower selection of models.

I went for this one, ended up buying two, one for my pc, one for my living room. every person that looks at it, whether close up, or farther away, is amazed.
