must be nice to have such smooth motion on screen.
hehehe Yes it's amazing! It's 24"
RE: What's your monitor resolution? - SpookyZalost - February 22nd, 2019
I Personally use a 60fps 23" touch screen at 1920x1080 for my primary desktop's interface with a trackball mouse and mechanical keyboard to augment it as needed.
though I really need to redesign it to be on a nice wall mounted arm so I can use it standing
I just don't think I could ever go back to 30fps
RE: What's your monitor resolution? - zoldos - February 22nd, 2019
30fps LOL
RE: What's your monitor resolution? - Thomas - June 18th, 2020
3840x2160 and 1920x1080
RE: What's your monitor resolution? - Kyng - July 17th, 2020
1920x1080.
After switching to that a year ago, I don't think I can ever go back to 1366x768
.

I know right. Before getting a 24" 1920x1080 HD LED 1ms display, I was running a 19" 1280x1024. WOW hehehe
RE: What's your monitor resolution? - Thomas - November 12th, 2020
I have dual 4k monitors now.

RE: What's your monitor resolution? - Darth-Apple - November 12th, 2020
Ah, nice. What do you use your vertical screen for?

Wow, that is quite an upgrade
.Of course, in two or three years' time, I might be using a 4K monitor, and wondering how I ever lived with 1920x1080
.
RE: What's your monitor resolution? - SpookyZalost - November 15th, 2020
@Kyng to be honest I don't really see much use in having higher resolution displays...
I mostly use my computer for text and 1080p is perfectly fine for that...

Well yeah, 1080p would be fine for anything text-based
. However, as someone who enjoys playing games like Civ 5... the extra space gives me a better view of what's going on, and also just generally makes the game more pleasant to play. Also, I sometimes work with pretty large images - and, the higher the resolution, the better.
RE: What's your monitor resolution? - SpookyZalost - November 24th, 2020
@Kyng yeah but for older games there's no real advantage to going over 1080p
Side note: civ V multiplayer is insanely broken.
