I think Dell also released a TN $700 4k monitor alongside the Ultrasharp. Might want to look at that. Not sure how many 1440p monitors on the budget side are IPS. Though it might be 30hz, which is right out.
If it were between 2 28" TN 2160p 60hz screens and 3 27" TN 1440p 60hz screens, I'd go with the UHD ones just because of pixel density.
The only stipulation seems to be you need to be using displayport 1.3 because any of these gerryrigged hdmi implementations suck.
- rosser 13y agoWell, sure; if both displays are TN screens, the pixel count wins. What about 2x4K/2160p TN vs 3x1440p IPS? The latter is what I'm considering right now (3x 2560x1440 in portrait).
- zanny 13y agoI guess if they are $500 or less it would work. Otherwise you are spending a lot for lower pixel density, and I'd probably just use some commodity $120 1080p IPS panels until 4k ones came into a reasonable price range with IPS 60hz 2160p panels between 24 - 28".
- rosser 13y agoThe panels I'm specifically looking at are < $400/per on Monoprice, so yeah.
- tempestn 13y agoThe problem is Dell's cheap 4k monitor is also 30Hz, so you're not much better off than the Seikis there.
- zanny 13y agoThat sucks, I'd def go 1440p screens then. Though if all you are doing is development, does framerate matter?
- tempestn 13y agoSome people don't mind it, but others (myself included) find it annoying even for things like scrolling, moving the mouse, etc. Also I suspect many (most?) of us at least occasionally game on our development machines...
