Hi,

 

currently i have an E2011H monitor, i am planning on getting the the XL2420Z monitor and make it as my primary gaming monitor while the E2011H will be for me to use reddit, youtube and other stuff.

 

the thing that i need to know is that, will there be any problem running two different size monitors with different resolution?

 

Oh, one more thing, the reason i chose the XL2420Z is because... it is SEXY~~~ YEAH~~ xD

I have 4 monitors, 3 different models, and 2 different brands, one is 1440p 144hz 27 inch and the rest are 24 inch 1080p. Are there glitches? Hell yes. Does it work well other than a few small things? Yeah. I would do it, you will never go back to a single monitor if you switch. Hell I just keep getting more.

Click the link in my signature. I'm running 3 monitors of a different size/resulotion.

 

Yes it's always better to pick the same ones, but you can perfectly work with different sizes

i did use my 32 inch TV before, it was so good! but i had to stop using it because my brother had to use it for his PS4 xD

 

by the way, what are the glitches?

And for some reason I keep adding shit. I just spent another $100 on fans and stuff. Also about to get CableMod. I spend way too much money :(

 

EDIT: THe H440 has god awful air flow so if your room is hot it wouldn't be a good idea to get.

My CPU gets to about 90 C on liquid without any overclock, and just playing something like CS:GO. My room gets to 85 F

I wouldn't have thought that's normal... Have you tried reapplying cpu paste etc? anyway.. let's not get off topic. :P

 

@Terra The "Glitches" would just be that the size of icons and windows may be different according to the pixel density and the screen size difference might make things a little odd. No huge issues.
