    Love my ultrawide primary with a 24" 16x9 in portrait as my secondary on the side. Archived Message

    More often than not I have two windows split equally on the ultrawide but sometimes have one taking up ~2/3 and the other ~1/3.
    Less often will have main window in the center with narrower ones on each side. Massive spreadsheets I occasionally have to work with get the whole ultrawide. The space is great when needed and nicely flexible. But how I use it all depends on what I'm working on at the time.

    With landscape + portrait I have one monitor that’s good for wide stuff, and one that’s good for tall stuff, whereas with the curved monitor I have one screen that’s bad at tall stuff and way wider than it needs to be for wide stuff.

    I am buying a new PC next month and trying to figure out what monitor setup to go with. My old PC just has a 24" on it.

    Thinking about going with either a couple 27" 4K monitors that can be rotated vertical, or a single 32". Tower will have a top of the line graphics card with multiple DisplayPort connections.

    I am leaning toward the double setup with flat monitors. Anyone have one of the big curved ones? What do you think of those?
