Hey guys,

 

I just got my first 4k monitor and so far I am loving it. The screen real-estate is amazing!

 

Just curious, do you guys make your icons/text/application larger (150% for example) in display settings, or do you leave it as 100%?

 

Thanks!

Depends on the physical monitor size. 4k at less than 30"s, I scale to at least 125%. No need to on larger screens.

Good luck man! 1440p is nice as well. Thankfully the price of 4k monitors have decreased a lot recently in the US so I got mine for a great deal.

 

Milas ellinika?
