4k for when you want it, 4 1080p displays for when you need it.

i use to run a 3-display setup

felt like the biggest virgin ever and immediately got rid of that shit when i noticed it and stripped down to a bro 1-monitor setup

got laid right afterwards

A 40" 4k display is the same as four 20" FHD displays except there are no bezels. Please do go on about how the 40" display is worse.

I think he was implying you should have 4 x 40" 4K monitors or something crazy like that.

Which would be kind of cool expect the part where you'd have to swivel your chair around to see all that shit, or be extremely far away.

My setup doesn't allow it. I used to have triple monitors (one was for a different computer but all controlled by the same keyboard and trackpad) but I sacrificed the third for room for my laptop dock. Now I basically use my secondary monitor for watching TV shows while I compute and my primary monitor as a monitor

Because I have 8.

kek'd, no I meant 1 4K primary display and 1 secondary one. Maybe a 2nd 4k monitor if it's not fuckhuge
>>
I used to have a three monitor setup, then as monitors died on me that dwindled to two, and now one.

One monitor only has forced me to use workspaces, which made me realize that you don't need that many monitors. But there are still times where workspaces don't cut it.

So two monitors is the sweet spot, or one large 4K monitor. But I'm broke, so fuck me.

my laptop can support a few monitors, but driving a pair of 4k monitors (as i have) would be a real pain in the ass. the fans would go crazy non-stop. i ended up building a (really pretty low-end) desktop and loaded it up with hard drives and a GPU that supports DP1.2

it might seem kind of crazy, but with teleport (or synergy if you use multiple operating systems) you get this surreal experience of extended desktops without having to plug anything in. considering that my laptop is my primary device, it sort of makes "docking" like this surreal futuristic thing where I just plug in and (when the laptop recognizes the network) it sort of magically sorts out the other monitors.
>>
>>55353083
I've used Synergy before, it's great
>>
>>55348022
I don't pretend I do anything that needs 4 screens, neither should you or any fag posting here.
>>
>>55353096
Who said anything about needing four monitors? I don't need a lot of things, doesn't mean I won't have them.
>>
>>55353095
yeah. it's kind of surprising that this isn't designed into external monitors. i suspect if apple is being really ambitious they might do something like this (high bandwidth wireless dedicated spectrum for wireless external displays, maybe driven by an integrated GPU, as has been rumored).

also when i say "plug in" in >>55353083 i mean plug in power. which (obviously) you could just not do as well.

>using a TV as a monitor
That's fucking repulsive. Do you have eyes?
>>
>>55353139
it's some /g/ trope or something. these people honestly don't understand that the appeal of 4k is to have it in a ~24" monitor and scale everything to 2x.

in before people who literally, after 4 fucking years, don't understand why a retina display is nice.
>>
>>55353155
4k at 40" is exactly the same as 4xFHD 20" monitors tiled 2x2 PPI and resolution wise, having no bezels like you would with multiple monitors sounds pretty appealing to me.
>>
>>55353172
so you'd rather have no bezels than have significantly sharper text and other visual assets?
>>
>>55353172
This sounds like something a gamer would say. It really just sounds like all your priorities are in getting the most immersive gaming experience.

Which is fine, but people who do things like read text and do work for a living will seriously appreciate a 4k monitor packed into the space a 1080p monitor would take much more than a sprawling 40" display on their desk.

It's the same reason people like the rMBP screen. Everything being sharper turns out to be a pretty nice feature.
>>
>>55353178
Yes
>>
>>55353178
Oh I'm not saying it's better than high pixel density, just that given the choice of 4x 20" FHD monitors or 1x 40" 4k monitor, hands down I'd go for 4k. I'm not saying it's the way to go, just that it's not just disadvantages.
>>
>>55353191
See >>55353201
I don't game at all. Just pointing out that a 40" 4k monitor wouldn't be pointless.
>>
>>55353201
oh, sure, but between 4k@40" and 4k@24" i would definitely and without hesitation choose the 24" monitor.

i can understand if your operating system's support for pixel scaling is still kind of garbage, but my sense is that most do it at least passably well by now. if you're using os x and you're familiar with/currently using a rMBP (or i guess a retina macbook) then i would find it shocking if you still felt you wanted 4k@40"

and i can understand too if you think this makes it a mac vs pc thing or something, but instead i see it as this: if everyone who uses a high density display on their laptop insists on that in their desktop displays, and the people who have little/no ongoing experience with high density displays are sort of randomly distributed, then it suggests that the experience is influential.
>>
>>55353237
I've never seen a "retina" display and person and can hands down agree that I'd take higher PPI over a larger screen.
