What is the best layout?
>>1096595251 with 32" 1440p monitor. I like it.
>>109659525The secret option
Two on top of each other. Fastest to switch focus between since you don't need to turn your head and it needs less space.
Depends on your use case.
>>109659575Horrible in practice but good try
2, it's like having 2 4:3 monitors side by side with no seam. and everyone knows 4:3 is the kings aspect ratio.
>>1096595258 if the monitor in the middle is 43 inches and the wings are portrait 27 inch
>>1096595251 with 24" monitor
>>109659567thishow is this not listed? the fuck?this one is the most comfy for browsing as well because you only need a hand on the mouse which lets you lounge back and rotate slightlyimpossible with the 2nd monitor on the rightI actually have a 3rd monitor above the 2nd one which I only use for work
>>1096595251: 32" 6k
>>1096595254 is the ultimate choice, or 5 with one in portrait>>109659567yeah if you only consooom content on the side screen, for anything else portrait mode is better
I'm rocking 5. Works well.8 seems kinda dumb. Why have two vertical monitors? Should just be one.
>>109659612this is the waymaybe even 27 but nothing more
>>1096595251 & 9.1 being a 32", 4k 240hz monitor9 being a macbook pro picking anything else = ur wrong (and gay)
1x 55" 4k tv as your main monitor.Real nice, lots of room for windows and you can lean back to have a real nice gooning sesh.
it depends
>>1096597289 is gay though. And bad for posture.
>>1096595251 with 1080p, you literally don't need more
>>109659796/thread
1 with 32" 4K. Used to have side monitors, but I'm too le ADHD to actually look at them.Would like to up the Ks more if I wasn't broke, non-HiDPI is trash.
>>109659702>anything elseportrait is literally only better for text.
>>109659826manga. checkmate athiests
8, for maximum green Matrix code downpour, as you tear Rockstar Games a third asshole on your old VGA main.
>>109659525for everything except video editing do not be afraid to have a split in the middle
My current setup.I will not explain.I will not apologize.
>>109659525Don't know about best, but 3 and 4 are interchangeable.
>>1096595259
5 but the middle is a 22" CRT and the sides are 19" CRTs aligned by the center of each screen, the actual screen not the monitor as a whole
Lol @ all the poors here justifying their one monitor.
>>1096595251, Anything else is mental illness
A lot of brown indians ITT. Can't you subhumans just go diving for copper in the Ganges? Surely you can save up enough Rupees to more than one 24" used monitor?
The only sane option.
>>1096595253, but with 2 on the left and 1 on the right
>>109659525>>1096595671, 2 or secret, but the additional monitor on the right, not on the left
>>109659869this is what optimal looks like, had it for over a decade, even for video editing.not having to scroll through tracks > larger timeline.
how are ultrawides for doing office drone work? lookin to upgrade my old ass 22' benq and dunno if i should go for a standard 27' or uw 34'.
>>109659567This + #4
perfect for beautiful workspace
Laptop underneath monitor
>>1096595252 4:3 monitors next to one another and a VR headset for when you want to move somewhere else. >>109659605But you're not splitting it into two virtual monitors, you're using it as one monitor.
I'm less interested in monitor setups and more interested in what peoples desktops look like 99% of the time.Often i find that people just waste screen space by getting a second monitor and fullscreening apps like spotify so they can... Idk? See how many seconds into a song that is currently playing?
>>109659525none of those. two ultrawides stacked horizontally (so like 2x #2)
This is mine and yes, they are duplicated not extended so that I can see no matter which space I am in
>>109660519Forgot the pic
>>109660519>>109660525>some kinda anal pistonyou must strain your neck a lot, craning it from all the way up there
>>109660525That's a big dildo right there ngl
>>109659567Close, but I suspect most people have their PC on their right, which position themselves on the left half of the desk. At least that's how it is for me, so my set up looks like this
>>1096595252. I used to rock 5 but 2 literally replaces it with 0 bezels. 1 57" UW is fucking amazing.
>>109659843"content"
>>109659525
>>109660573The majority of people are right eye dominate. Top right quadrant on monitors is prime real estate.Personally though, i can't do two monitors. The amount of eye movement is too much, webpages, apps, DE's etc, they're all wasteful on space. Adding in extra monitors compounds that issue.Currently rocking a single 2560x1440p 32 inch monitor that is often split in two views. Shrinks webpages/apps, into what you'll see on 1 vertical monitor. But isn't tiny like on a 4k monitor. 4k into 4 quadrants would just preserve the 16:9/10 aspect ratio on the 4 pages/apps, again, wasting space.
>>109659525I’m a mix of 4 and 5
