Posted June 11, 2017 Sometime in the summer I'm thinking of building a PC. I have a list parts for roughly £500 (630 USD) below my budget. I was thinking of getting a 4k curved one, but then I considered getting 2 cheaper (1440p/1080p) ones. I'm probably going to be doing video/photo editing, gaming and maybe some progamming. I'm not to experienced in terms of monitors so I have decided to ask the LTT community. Thanks, Liam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 11, 2017 What is budget for your monitors? I would just get 2 1440p if it fit your budget, if you thinking of doing video editing and legit production work you should look at some color accurate panels (4K or 1440p at 60hz) and gaming monitor as other (1080p 144hz) Magical Pineapples
