i think you would find this setup to be really poor.
you need be within ~2ft viewing to appreciate the difference between 1080p and 4k at 24" diagonal display size.
sitting 2ft from an 8ft wide display will give you very poor viewing angles for the majority of the content. at greater distances than 2ft, the pixel density of a 4k 24" display become nothing more than waste of gpu, cpu and electricity.
- taneq 8y agoI have a 5x1 monitor wall and it's great for coding, but it curves around through 90° so all the screens are equidistant. Portrait mode is so much better for coding (for me) and I can see multiple source files, application, documentation and reference material all at once. It's great!
- skookumchuck 8y agoMaybe. I know I could easily make use of one double (in both x and y) the size I currently have. As for discerning pixels, I know that the retina display is distinctly easier to read than non-retina (both from Apple) even though I could not see the pixelation on the latter. Watching video does not make much difference, but reading text sure does.
