Three 24" monitors or one huge monitor for programming?

"programming"

2x 27" is industry standard

3 32:9 49 inch curved monitors side by side (all vertical)

I ask because I'm having trouble choosing between 3x Dell P2425 on an 3-monitor Ergotron arm and the single huge monitor from the OP pic.
>>
A single 24" UHD monitor in 16:10 would be the ideal.
>>
Width is shit for coding. What you actually want is height. One of those tall monitors as your secondary.
>>
>>107741019
One huge one that has feature where you can splice it into three ones with separate resolutions/screens.
>>
At my job our setup is two 27" monitors + our company 14" MBP
I think it's a good setup but I effectively only use the two monitors and two monitors is plenty anyway
>>
That monitor looks like dogshit. You should get a 40"+ 16:9 4k screen instead.

I'd buy a 6k or 8k screen if they fucking made them in real sizes (65 and 86" respectively), but right now the best option is just a basic 4k monitor. Height is way more important than width for every application, 21:9 and 32:9 are completely retarded.
>>
People got conned into believing more and larger screens are good for you. But the reality is smaller and better screens is where it's at. Smartphones are a great example of ultra high resolution small screens kicking ass
>>

Is a hardware feature needed for that? I thought that this is done in software with xrandr --setmonitor
>>
one 32" 1440p works fine for me.
>>
>>107741019
Idk for work three monitors work better for me than one single ultrawide.

Check out chink arms on aliexpress
>>
why do you need 3 monitors for programming?
>>
>>107741323
>center: code, compiler output, terminals

You don't need "right".

1 & 2 for all files or 2 seperate proj if you merge or whatever. 3rd for Teams/Teamviewer/Youtube.

2 is absolute min, doing anything frontend without a dedicated screen for the builder or its tools is simply cruel. 3 is luxury but I wouldnt want to miss it. Comes in clutch often enough.

4 huge monitors.

One 24" at 1024x768. You don't need more.

A macbook is an industry standard
