[@Danu_chandimal]

I have a 38" LG ultrawide as my main and a vertical 27" dell 4k secondary monitor. I reckon this is perfect for all tasks

[@whoami6821]

Do you use a mac or windows

[@Danu_chandimal]

@@whoami6821 I have a Windows pc

[@alalal123421]

which monitor? the one he linked is only 32"

[@rootcao1360]

do you get irritated of constantly turning your head between each monitor?

[@Danu_chandimal]

@@rootcao1360 no not really. I don't know if it helps but the ultrawide is curved so most of the screen is always about the same distance from my eyes.

[@apresthus87]

Have been using a 29" ultrawide for a year or so but I'm getting a 32" "normal" monitor and turning the ultrawide into portrait orientation for my coding workflow. 29" was too small for me, as I still was left lacking for screen real estate while working, also there was not too much media that supported the ultrawide aspect ratio, so I'd prefer to go back for now.

[@bepreparedforwhatscoming4975]

It depends how far away you sit

[@alexandrgarlock4075]

I love having 2 x 27inch monitors. I have one vertical and one horizontal. Has been my favorite setup for a while now.

[@sadcat520]

I'm trying to get 2 x 27 inch but both horizontal. I have the desk space but only if I move my speakers to a speaker stand cause they're in the way

[@kennethbass1915]

This is what I’m getting ready to try. They’re being delivered next week 😬 Recommendations on desk arm mounts for the vertical monitor?

[@YavartSingh]

I have the same, it's the best, i basically have 2 lg ultrafine 4k 27inch one vertical and one horizontal I can multi-task, watch videos take meetings and do so much more, I connect my mac with it and it's on a stand and it acts as 3rd screen

[@tuckertech]

I have two setups. My WFH has a dual setup of a 34 widescreen and a 27 inch mounted vertically. My gaming setup is a single 32 inch curve gaming monitor.

[@GoldPuffs]

After seeing the comparison, wouldn't the best way to go is just to have an ultra wide and another monitor on top? This way you get the amazing gaming experience while also being able to still full screen videos on top.

[@Chiramisudo]

5:57 That's an easy one. Just use multiple Desktops and toggle between them. I often have at least 2-3 desktops, one dedicated for screen sharing with only the apps / folders that I want to share for daily Scrum, meetings, screen recording for documentation, etc. You can also set zones, and even crop in post-production in the latter case.

[@karenwang313]

As a programmer, having a second screen in portrait mode is a complete game changer. Unfortunately, my wacom cintiq takes up wayyy too much space, so one of those monitors had to go. Once I get a dedicated illustration setup going though, I'm heading right back to the double monitor setup.

[@markod3957]

I havn't tried it yet, does it not feel quite straining on the eyes? Do you run 1 full portrait window or stack to editor windows on each other?

[@DDHDTV]

I tried that, unfortunately, the code in my company is way too long and it does not fit, still ahve to scroll sideways

[@benjimc1]

Dual monitor arm is your solution there

[@PopTartNeko]

I use a drawing tablet for illustration/painting, and wondered why it felt SO unnatural drawing on my ultrawide monitor compared to my normal monitor at work, then I finally figured out: Most if not all drawing tablets are made with 16:9 aspect ratio in mind... Ultrawides are at least 21:9! Due to the mapping distortions, horizontal strokes will translate slower than vertical strokes i.e. Circles I draw on my Wacom Intuos become ovals on the ultrawide... This shit bothered me so much after I noticed, that I straight up went back to my 24" lmao. Definitely something to consider if you plan on doing any digital art at all.

[@Xargantuan]

You can adjust the active area of the Wacom in your settings to reflect the 21:9 aspect ratio. But you do end up with a smaller active area but it should solve your problem. I usually set mine to a bit smaller than full size since the edges of Wacoms usually have issues activating the system popup menu.

[@evorick]

This answered so many questions I didn't even think about and made my decision so much easier! Even a year later this video has provided valuable information to me. Thank you so much!

[@Unborn8436]

Switched from 2x24 inch 1080p monitors to a 34 inch ultrawide. I miss having discord or twitch full screen on the 2nd screen, but i love the look of an ultrawide especially when games and movies support it.:) i recommend buying a 2nd monitor on top of an ultrawide tor the best of both

I was thinking the same, 1 ultra wide monitor and another for for discord in portrait mode

[@TheRealOnlineAcc]

Which resolution would you use for the portrait mode monitor?

[@kennethbass1915]

This is an interesting point i haven’t seen brought up. I love the look of Dylan and would hate to not have that on my windows for the ultra wide

[@danielkohn7926]

i use ultrawide with tiling wm on linux, and its pretty awesome, and i have 0 problems managing space

[@pastuh]

06:50 you can maximize full screen on windowed screen. Chrome.. More tools -> Create shortcut (and check 'open as window') Or just use extension "Windowed"

[@VaiRostampour]

I went dual 27in 4K at 100% scaling. The screen real estate is unmatched, I need a lot of apps open at once… which is where having windows snap across 2 screens effectively 8 zones works perfectly.

[@letthatbe]

You must have really good eyes then

[@pastuh]

I got LG C2 42" Worst decision lol.. OLED tv is not monitor for sure.. But for games is amazing :D

[@RafaelMarcosAderaldo]

@@letthatbe Yeah I thought the same. I have a 27in 2K and use it at 125% scaling because things are too small for me imagine 4k!

[@rasthehead]

As someone who will soon get a gaming setup, I think dual screens is better for productivity while gaming if a have to choose one. If you're busy with your game on one screen, you can turn your head to see Discord on the other. If playing a game while it's not in fullscreen is not bothersome to you then an ultrawide would be better for you; also if you're strictly gaming with apps opened in the background if you prefer the fullscreen gaming experience. For things like producing music and even video editing (content creation), an ultrawide is ultra useful but if using one screen to edit isn't a bother, then you'll be fine with dual screens. Dual screens will also work for you if turning your head from one screen to another makes you feel sophisticated. Anyone who uses a laptop will know it's better to have two screens than one. For, let's call them "dual gamers", just make sure your screens aren't small. They should be on the larger side (27 inches ateast sounds proper) so that you don't feel constrained. Personally speaking, I believe you should get the best of both worlds once you can. Ultrawide dual screens will be excellent for gamers and those who work on their monitors. Thank you for the video, mate. I'll definitely come back to purchase some things from your links.

[@mmmm69420]

i’ve been using triple 27inch 1080p monitors and a 24inch 1080p above the middle for about a year now - and i’m thinking about switching the middle one out for a 34inch ultra wide and making the two 27’s vertically on the ends with the 4th above the ultra wide. not sure though

[@madcitystream]

@ortsaslan you guys have the right idea. I'm currently using a 2x 27 inch 2k, but my next monitor purchase will be a 32/34 inch ultrawide 2k (probably curved) and the 27 inches on either side of it. I would not put them vertically.

[@Lord_Mangoat]

I prefer a dual monitor setup myself. Currently using 2 LG 4K displays and love it.

[@KMVSD]

I'm currently got both setup 2*16:9 (landscape and portrait ) for coding/productivity and 21:9 for gaming, yes it's serve different purpose but considering to add one16:9 to the widescreen setup to start the gameplay streaming, so I think my "ideal" set up for the future would be this 1 21:9 in landscape and one 10 inch LCD (like the raspberry pi screen) beneath the main screen so it will not distract and serve as auxiliary screen. it's the same concept like the ASUS notebook.

[@davidbasset7557]

after using a 34 inch ultrawide for s few years ive realized bigger is not better for gaming, pro fps gamers mostly use smaller screens so their eyes don’t have to scan a large surface area to hit targets or make quick movements

[@supertal3]

34" UW at home, and 2 24" at work... by far prefer the UW because I tend to distract myself more with dual monitors

I know this is an older video but it helped a lot I'm sure it's excessive but I run a duel 27" (one vertical one horizontal) and am considering replacing the horizontal with a 34" ultrawide for gaming and work

[@PatrickRambles]

Great video, brother. Loving the intros 😅. I've done the unthinkable and combined my LG ultrawide with a verical 27inch LOL.

[@skandashetty8182]

Bro would you mind comparing some budget laptops 💻 for students for programming and little gaming .

[@HappyPawsPhotography]

I switched from a triple display setup to a single 49 inch super ultrawide and will never go back. I am mostly a photo/video editor but do a bit of gaming. I use a gaming PC and an M1 Max Macbook with shared peripherals on a smaller desk than I'd like so being able to swap between them with a single cable (via the TS4 Thunderbolt dock) is perfect. I will probably upgrade in six months to a larger desk and may split the configuration and am strongly considering the 57" samsung for a dedicated PC monitor and splitting the setup but I'm not sure yet. The swapping is a little annoying but the laptop and the desktop are a bit out of the way so I might just get them closer to me so I don't have to get up lol

[@teethofthelamb]

Thanks for the useful tips. I have the iPad pro 12.9 and a LG 34” curved ultra wide monitor, productivity is my main focus and I don’t have space for dual monitors, the ultra wide was the perfect solution for me. I love the setup that I currently have.

[@mrbabyhugh]

0:44 no one should setup like this. this is not ergonomically good and the neck will be stressed, medium to especially long term effects will be regretted. I got no clue why anyone thinks this is something good.

[@MrColesy1]

Which is the tall stand being used on the top in the productivity setup (10:27 in video)? it’s not the one linked as the one in the video has an arm in it

[@MoyzonRecords]

I had 2 monitors setup, also for gaming and for work, trying different vartiations always + tested using curved monitor with macbook, also switching from macbook colors to curved one, I realised that I am just stuck on macbook colors and curved was like for internet browsing (scrolling design on curved monitor looks not ok for me) So for my best choice I just use 1 monitor my iMac to work and If I want to gaming I have second one but standing on another desk just to play games and chill. I realized that distraction for me it's not ok and I can't focus If i have in front of me 2 monitors for example 1 for work and 1 for video or something other. For my best focus I just use 1 monitor and If I want to chill and have a break I just play games on another one. This psichologically just easier for me.

I've been rocking a 2 monitors setup for ages. I got a new sit stand desk couple weeks ago and replaced the 2 1080p monitors with2 x 2k 27s. I had them both landscape then switched the right one to ti portrait. Life changing.! However I just ordered a 34 curved ultra wide that should arrive Tuesday and I will pair it with a 27 in portrait.

[@pandoxno3]

any news regarding your experiences with your new Ultra Wide setup?

[@boxterduke]

@@pandoxno3 LOVE IT! haha. I have the ultrawide with anothe 27 inch that I do portrait or ladscape depending on what I'm doing. but very diable if you have monitor arms and enough space on the desk. 1 thing for sure, that my main monitor will never be 16:9 anymore. Ultrawide for life.

[@shoto42]

I have dual 27’ monitors side by side and I I honestly can’t see myself switching to any other set up, maybe in the future I’ll switch to bigger screens and higher resolution. Just having everything separate from each other makes my work/gaming experience all the more better. I’m not a coder or anything so having a vertical screen wouldn’t do me any good and having triple monitor set up would be overkill for what I do but maybe I’ll switch to that sometime in the future

[@dtsect]

I'm on the same boat but I found myself using the left monitor a bit more as a primary and the right one as a secondary, which forces me to have a slightly off posture and having to turn my neck left and right more. I'm looking into having a 38" UW to possibly replace my dual 27".

[@richardpalmer8478]

I started with a a dual 24" 1080p x 1920 set-up but it was a bit too bulky for my snug home-office space and a hassle if I had to move my desk to another room or area of the house. I 'graduated' to a 34" ultra wide 1440p x 3440. The ultrawide set-up is amazing. Sleek, portably convenient and plenty of multiple-window space for my work. The picture detail and font clarity of 1440p is superior to 1080p. I'll probably never go back to dual monitors.

[@MystaGreekGaming]

This was so helpful!! I was thinking to switch from 3 1440p displays to 1 wide and 1 1440p but i stream so its a no go for me. Thank you very much you are amazing! It is the first time i see your video!

[@revrides8538]

[@le_truc7722]

my set-up is composed of an ultrawide and i chose it because when it comes to gaming i felt like a simple display was limiting my feild of view and didnt deliver a very emersive experience even being slightly fustrating by times

[@cidcolead1115]

Dual on the utility PC. Left Monitor is split tiles for ADSB Exchange and Real Time Lighting Map. Right is for videos, word processing, watching videos. Triple on the workstation. Right is for the SDR radio spectrum display single window full screen, center is for digital communications, basically two windows with access to some desktop icons and left is for control functions, three windows. Need to upgrade to sit/stand desks.

[@erichollar5503]

The drawbacks you mention are why I have stuck with my 10+ year old triple monitor setup: 1920x1200 in the middle, two 1600x1200 monitors on the sides. I will only run Windows at 100%, as the scaling feature is still to buggy with software I use - so some higher resolution monitors are out for me due to being too small for their pixel density. My needs are only productivity related, not gaming. Sure my setup isn't as elegant as an ultrawide, but it suits my use case very well - and I"m finding it difficult to justify making any changes.

[@andieluke1366]

I seriously miss the 1200p monitors. I work primarily with text and a ton of open references, and 1080p is too short. 1440p works well, but becomes too costly for a dual monitor setup and too big when in vertical (27" being the minimal size for 1440p to be comfortable for my eyes). Was really bummed when companies started moving away from 1200p.

[@serge.y]

1440p is a minimum for me. I find 1080p very uncomfortable for text/numbers. I recently upgraded to 4k and it’s a dream. Text is super sharp and smooth and it’s way easier on my eyes when working with text for long periods of time

I've tried it, and I just can't deal with that center bezel. For gaming, I use a 32" 4K or a 34" 3440x1440 centered on my desk. Either way, I like having an outboard 2560x1080 display in portrait mode, to the left usually, for browsing the answers to whatever questions crop up. In my study, I use a 43" 4K TV split roughly 60/40 vertically.

[@xiaohu9866]

IMO, say you have a budget of $1000 for either one ultrawide or 2 normal monitors. A 34" ultrawide is 3,440 x 1,440 at probably 60/75hz, while one 27" 2K monitor at $500 is 2,560 x 1,440 at potentially 120/144hz. So basically for the same price, with two 27" monitors you will be getting 2.4 million more pixels and a higher refresh rate. Unless special need for ultrawide (e.g., film editing, racing games, FPS?), I'd always recommend dual monitor setup 🖥 🖥

[@Wudanmaster116]

Sticking two 4k res monitors now, I have tried a super ultrawide and normal ultrawide and really wanted to like them but there are just too many things that interfere with gaming/production. Remote desktop app launching window size along with the inability to play a game on half the monitor and use the other half to do whatever. Some ultrawides have that ability now but still if you split the screen you split the resolution which sucks! Sometimes I want to play games at max res AND watch something on my other screen, that does not work awesome with any ultra/super ultra. Yes it works but there is always something you have to give up. Then when it comes to my work which requires me to RDP into servers etc. the ultrawide always causes RDP to open apps in weird locations (other users might be opening them in a second monitor and it remembers where it was last launched) and its off the screen or just a weird size. This never happened with two monitors. Overall I just found streaming games, playing games and production/work was just way easier and uniform without having to give anything up (like playing games at lower res because you want to use the other half to watch something). But yes, two nice monitors is much more expensive than any single super ultrawide.

[@PalmRenders]

Great video man! I’m aspiring to turn my digital artist/content creator hobby into full time after I graduate University so I definitely think i’m going to do a dual 27” setup rather than upgrading to an ultrawide because I do have to record my design process for youtube and splitting the screens on an ultra wide to get the right aspect ratio for my videos and then having the second monitor out of the screen recording software to use for my art references will be great! Question tho, do you think having 2 monitors stacked hurts your neck from looking up all the time? or would you recommend to have the T layout

[@EggTamago7]

Really, I think this is just a very personal thing, and like you said there's no right answer. Most of us are cramming multiple use-cases into one setup, and there just isn't a true ideal. My setup consists of my MacBook Pro and a gaming PC. There's a 27" 1440p monitor connected to the gaming PC, which I'll also use occasionally as a second screen for my laptop (I prefer to work mainly on the laptop screen for many reasons). Then there's a second, older 1080p 24" monitor connected to the gaming PC, almost entirely just so I can have KZbin/Discord/iTunes/a browser open while gaming. It's a situation where I can't even think of a way to make it work better for my needs, no matter how much money I could theoretically throw at it. A super nice 4k or higher display would be great to plug my laptop into, but would push my already quite capable gaming PC (3070 Ti) to its limits.

I’m looking to get into a Laptop setup for school/gaming since I am beginning to travel more and the PC I built in 2015 is on its last leg. I mainly game on my PS5 so I want a dual monitor setup so that I can have the PS5 playing on one monitor and be able to the other monitor for my laptop. Is there a way that I can have it setup so that I don’t have to mess with the buttons to change the input every time I want to switch to the PS5? For reference the laptop I’m buying is the Legion pro 7i
