- Ladies & gents hope you’re well.
So over the years I’ve tried various screen setups, from a single monitor, to dual monitors, to a TV for a monitor, and right now I’m using a single 34 inch ultrawide monitor.
So today we’re gonna compare a dual monitor setup to a single ultrawide and this will hopefully help you to figure out what’s the best choice for you. Comment down below what monitor or monitors you’re using.
Thank you guys so much watching as always, if you enjoyed the video please don’t forget to smash like, subscribe if you haven’t already and I’ll see you next time. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
How about: two ultrawides stacked vertically.
The world isn’t ready bro, not yet.
This man is too dangerous to be left alive.
now, thats gaming experienced
Omg
How about 3?
In case you are into coding, having two screens also comes with the benefit that you could turn one by 90 degrees. Which is convenient to display more limes of code vertically. Or also in case you extensively use the command line.
What's your thoughts on the ultrawide?
@@sunset6958 I personally prefer a three screen setup with one screen turned by 90 degrees. For the reasons given my comment. Maybe it could also be a widescreen and a second turned one.
But finally for me it totally boils down to personal preference and what you use the screen for.
For video editing or if you use a daw for example I guess the wide screen might be the better solution.
@@MrNice-zm9qk ah I see , thanks for the input
I preferred the landscape monitor for code - can have 2/3 files side by side. But reviewing code or searching things or reading things, portrait is great!
I like my 21:9 for design with a second 16:9 (16:10 preferably) monitor for testing how it looks to most. I dont code too much, but I guess I could make it vertical for when I do, I never thought of that, tha ks for mentioning it.
I just love the horizontal real estate for design, or video editing. I can display so many more tools easier. They always got in the way.
I’ve had ultra wides and dual monitor setups. It depends what you want to do. I don’t game and use my computer for productivity which is why I prefer dual 32 inch 4k monitor setup. It provides more real estate for all my applications and spreadsheets without having them to stack on top each other.
You speak well and slowly. It's easy to undertand. Thanks for this video.
You really covered a lot of important points! I'm always critical with smaller channel's that are new to me. But you really surprised me! Good Video. Thanks
Great video, this was exactly the type of comparison I was looking for!
I'm using my laptop screen at the moment. Thanks for this! I was planning to get dual monitors but now I'm thinking of getting a ultrawide monitor!
Very nice video & video quality!
While looking around for an ultrawide that does all the things I want it to, I came to the conclusion that that doesn't exist yet... So I am now split between a dual 16:9 setup that does have all the specs I want or waiting for an ultrawide to come to market. Although not being able to buy a graphics card upgrade at the moment is making the choice easy since my current card wouldn't run smoothly on 1440p anyway...
Great information. Very much on point. Unlike tons of superficial covers by other TH-camrs.
such a good video.
A nice mixture of pros and cons thus it helped me a lot with my own decision between those options.
Great review. I just upgraded my 34 21:9 inch to a 38 inch 21:10 monitor which is on an arm. The extra height on the 38 helps. I also have a tilted 24 inch monitor at around 45 degrees right under my 38 inch monitor. Not the greatest since space is limit but it works since I made sure to get a deep desk 36 inches deep and 52 inches wide.
Awesome! I would love a 38 but they're too pricey for me at the minute.
Nice, I really wanted a 38 inch version, but LG's 34 GP83A was already expensive, despite the sale I got it on ($800 Cdn).
My next purchase in a few years will def be 38. By then I'm sure HDR will be improved and local dimming will be a regular thing on most monitors.
IPS is still tje way to go, but hopefully contrast ratios can be improved, or a new panel will emerge. Gaming/response is incredible on it, but movies are pretty meh.
keep on going man! don't give up...your content is pretty good and will get more views as time passes on
Currently run a dual monitor setup. 1 27' with high refresh rate for gaming, and 1 27' high color accuracy monitor for content creation. Also very handy for keeping tabs on discord, wiki's, random youtube, chatting with friends, etc.
Even if there was an ultrawide that fit all my requirements, I think I would only be convinced to switch it is was something nuts like 4k, 144hz, oled, and just blew all other experiences out of the water.
Could you you tell which monitor you're using?
Yeah i was going to get a ultra wide monitor for productivity and gaming + ps5.. can’t find an ultrawide that supports vrr for a decent price. Might just do a dual monitor setup
I have always used dual monitors (in the beginning it was only the Laptop till I move out). I just recently change my second monitor into a curved one (24 zoll) after my main monitor broke years ago, I changed it to a 28-30 Zoll monitor. Two curved monitor just looks nice in terms of aesthetic. I could go for the same size but I wanted to save up a little bit. It was quite affordable for a curved monitor with a decent size.
Usually, I game on the main monitor in full screen. The second monitor it kinda depends watching video or chatting, if not gaming.
My graphic tablet is my third screen. Thanks to the setting, it's also perfect for reading mangas.
that's exactly what I need, thank u 4 inf ! keep going
Excellent video, thanks a lot
For me personally I run an UW and a normal 16:9 monitor, because especially in slower games i love to have some show or youtube video on, on the side. Which means LOADS of screenspace, but also more space taken by monitors. But honestly that seems to be the best setup, because you can play on the 16:9 in games that are better fitted for it and still can simultaneously watch shows
Both. 3440x1440 144hz ultrawide as main and a vertical 1080p monitor for everything else. :)
I got a 34" Gigabyte G34WQC for 379 that I have been extremely happy with for the price.
I am having difficulty deciding between dual monitors or a single wide monitor. I love multi tasking, playing a game while having TH-cam in the background and typically tab between TH-cam, other pages for research and Word for writing / note taking. Doing this really fulfills my ADHD nicely.
Very good comparison! (and production, new sub here)
perfect! Thanks for this. I mostly do admin tasks and I think ultra-wide monitor is perfect for me
Great video. I learned a lot!!!
I finally decided against the ultrawides and went with 3 28" instead, love them
I've been looking into ultrawides for about 2 yrs now. I've been using dual monitors for about 15yrs. The advent of curved ultrawides got me interested. But... I've been waiting on certain things to happen. 1) Gsync. I like it or freesync. But the physical unit drove costs up. Luckily Gsync on certain models no longer requires the unit to reap most of the benefits. 2) Better panel tech and improvement. We have got that over the years but I'm still waiting on some more innovation with things like OLED and for costs to drop. 3) Cost. I've had 0 issue with spending $500 to 800 on 1440p Gsync unit monitors but I'm not interested in paying much more than double for a single ultra wide especially with the added costs of the newer tech despite it no longer having the physical Gsync unit anymore. 4) Screen splitting. There are tons of software options now. And you can even run monitors as 2 separate ones with another cable if the monitor supports it. But it's a curved display. I'd want to be able (at least in a fair bit of games) to have the game playing in the center with 16:9 and have 2 smaller vertical ones flanking it. You can do this but I also want the ability to Fullscreen it. It seems like some software will be able to do this shortly. Funny thing is when all this stuff happens and I finally get an ultra (or super ultra) wide, I'll still probably end up using on of my current monitors as a true second monitor anyway.... I'm too used to it. But I'll probably just use it in portrait mode.
This helped a ton. Thank you!
ultrawide imo, I switched from dual 1920x1080 (27") to a single 5120 x 1440 (49" 1800R), and just having that middle bezel gone is amazing!!! being able to look dead-on is amazing. I'm an electrical engineering student so I'll have LT spice, word, browser, and Arduino open and I can resize the window to work for me. plus there's a PBP mode if you want to watch two different things
@Michal Zuzaniak 2 or 3 monitors IMO. you can angle them how you like them, easy to lock and resize applications using hotkeys etc. one monitor is best if you have an insane video card and care about that kind of aesthetic.
I use two 27" WQHD monitors. One up front and on at the side because I do not use each monitor 50% of the time, but maybe 75% and 25%, so it helps that my head needs to move less. With one 49" monitor you are pretty much stuck to have it centered. Definitely something to consider.
Very good video. brought it to the point.
Thanks for this informative video 👍 I would loved though to get some insights on the picture in picture feature.
I have both an ultrawide for single player game, tv shows and movies and high refresh rate, low latency 24 inch for competitive gaming mounted on a dual arm mount. I also work on my PC but this setup is more for gaming than anything else.
Dude I didn't know you did reviews! Think your standup and show is great!
Thanks for the video, purely in terms of having the virutal desktops and multiple programs running does the the ultra wide allow you to split the screen with that functionality ?
Or do you have the manually place the windows and adjust their sizes ?
like your way of thinking, informative and logic
Can't believe i fall asleep just listening to you. Seriously! 😂😂
I've just recently sold off my old 21:9 monitor in which I bought back in 2017 coming from my old Dell 30" 16:10 monitor from 2010 maybe. Specs were fairly good, and maybe even the best you could get at that time with up to 100Hz refresh, decent blacks etc. What I never got used to was when 21:9 games stretched the view to fit the screen like you showed in your video, seems that at that point you just as well could have had a 16:9 monitor. While my display were fairly good I still had some uniformity problems which is fairly common for curved UW monitors. And coming from an excellent monitor like the Dell with truly good colour accuracy for the time, I really did not like the uniformity problems and the lesser colour accuracy, combined with the small vertical space. I have now gone and bought a 32" 16:9 monitor, will most likely never ever go back to UW again, love the colour accuracy, the uniformity, the non curved screen, great black levels and the higher vertical space. I use this as my main monitor, and a 27" monitor for extra content, even considering try to use my really old Dell 30" as screen number 2.
Very informative video. Thank you. I am actually changing my office to a trading/gaming setup using the ikea desk hack as well as a ultrawide monitor. i was looking into the MSI 32 inch curved gamind monitor, but seeing that i am going to be editing on this screen as well using iMovie and Adobe products i wanted to ensure that i had enough real estate for what i was looking to accomplish. Thanks for sharing.
Two monitors is the best choise for web development (27" QHD). Ultrawide is not the same as 2 × 16:9 There is also a problem when you want to share your screen and don't want to show all you have on your only screen. Three monitors is perfect!
The screen sharing aspect is a great point, thanks
@Igor, do you have any tips of monitors that allows two OS(Mac and PC) to be plugged into the monitor so you can use both at the same time?
This is for web developments I´m thinking
There are super ultrawide 49" monitors, exactly the same screen realestate and resolution as two 27" QHD monitors.
@@atl3630 I'm not sure about other software. But MS Teams lets you share only the specific software that you want to share, so you can limit to just that software and nothing else will be shown when sharing.
what a professional reviewer! Hardly had I write a youtube comment, but your video is impressive
Thanks for the kind words!
Hello, I enjoyed your video and very much appreciate your attention to your clear pronunciation which helps me to clearly hear what you are saying. Could you perhaps show how to set up an ultrawide monitors as a place where various news and information sources populate automatically on one screen?
I have a 34" LG 1440p monitor as my main, and a 27" DELL 1440p as the secondary (having the same vertical resolution on both is important). They are also physically the same vertical size so it's not visually jarring.
I use them for work and gaming. Both equally for the former, and the Dell as a secondary screen for Discord, Web etc when playing games on the LG.
I have a notion of changing to the 49" Samsung Odyssey, but I actually think that I'd miss the secondary display so would probably try and keep it in place somehow
Solid video bro.
great thoughts, thanks
I'll personally stick to dual monitors. Looking into buying a 144hz monitor as my main display and keep one of my 60hz monitors for other applications that don't need the higher refresh rate
Nice! I do wish sometimes that I could watch a podcast or something whilst I'm gaming.
@@Revolve-Studios Bruh... Watch a podcast? :D
@@walrus-splice-renewable Haha, I guess I was thinking of Joe Rogan before they moved to Spotify
How is that going? For me games would lower to the min refresh rate (in this case 60Hz) if you run them in windowed fullscreen. For games like PoE it was annoying.
@@Revolve-Studios Why not add a cheap 24 inch to your setup?
Helpful, thank you!
Question: I see others have touched on the same topic but wrt gaming, have you had any experience using Display Fusion and setting up virtual screen (VS) so that the game runs in the center most VS in 16:9?
As an artist/coder/designer I would be lost without my dual 16:10 IPS screens. I can run Visual Studio on monitor1 and I can run Photoshop on monitor 2 with my Wacom A5 tablet mapped to monitor 2 as well. That means my tablet still matches the aspect ratio of a single monitor, which avoids inconsistent X, Y scaling.
When I used to mod games like GTAV, I would run the game and Visual Studio on monitor 1, leaving monitor 2 for browser, reference docs, 3DS Max or Photoshop... or a combination of those 4. I also use edge-snap a lot, so it's nice having 4 edges to snap things to. I started using dual-screens in the 90's and I'm happy to stay with that setup.
If my PC was a pure gaming machine, then I would probably have an ultrawide (or triple screen) but it has always been a development PC first and foremost.
Great explanation 👍
Thank you for the great review. I have order the new Studio Display, but
right now I still use my 27" iMac with a 5K Retina display and a 2nd
monitor of Iiyama, also a 5k 27" monitor. But I'm wondering of a
Widescreen like for Samsung Odyssey G9 Neo Mini LED or Samsung Odyssey
G9 QLED won't be a better choice instead of two seperated monitors?
Thank you already for your time
Great video! I always wondered what would happen if you tried running a 16:9 resolution game on an ultra wide monitor. Seems I was not too far off.
Thanks! To be fair some other games do center it, might just be Skyrim being dodgy :)
Am using the ASUS VG27AQ paired with a AOC C27G2Z. I switch between these two depending on what type of game I am playing. The VG27AQ for not so competitive games(story games, laid back games, and etc.), and then the C27G2Z for competitive games (mostly shooters)
Could you tell me the difference between the two monitors and why you chose to play a certain game over the other? Thanks
I got my first ultrawide a year and a half ago and will never go back. Movies and games look gorgeous. More of an immersive feel. Mine has a slight curve, not the more hefty curve of the Odyssey. When I checked out a heavy curve (sorry don't know the official terms) I found it too annoying at the edges of the screen, slightly disorienting. Kept my old monitor to use as a second but don't think I've turned it on in over six months.
I play primarly newer games but now and then load an older game from my Steam library. So far they have all run fine. I don't play any fps games though.
hey bro, now what do you use for work?
Good overview!
I am using two 27” Acer monitors and quite keen on buying a new Samsung Odyssey Neo G9, with it’s mini-LED backlighting, a 240Hz refresh rate and 5120 x 1440 resolution HELL YEAH! I am also considering a larger 65” 4K OLED Smart TV as an alternative. Thanks for creating this video 👍🏻
good point that most movies are shot in 21:9 ratio, now I undertand why the top and bottom black bars are shown on my 16:9 monitor and tv when playin a movie in "full screen" without distortion
Very informative video. I just bought an ultrawide to replace two monitors, and it's an improvement in some situations, and annoying in others.
Cheers! Yeah for sure, it's tempting to have a second monitor anyway but then I'd need an even bigger desk
Can you please list the pros and cons?
@@OmoruyiOmofonmwan
Cons:
Many apps don't support ultrawide very well.
The amount of curve may not be to your liking. (I wish mine was more curved)
Too big to transport safely.
Pros:
First person games look very good.
@@MattRoszak Seems to be more cons than pros. Haha. So should I just get multiple monitors then?
@@OmoruyiOmofonmwan In most cases, probably.
great vid!
I'm also thinking of going ultrawide in June. Using a LG 32 inch 165hz 1440p main and a viewsonic 1080p 27 inch 144hz secondary. :)
how does FancyZones influence playing that SKyrim in the middle of the screen while having, say, 2 more windows popped on the left and right side of the main gaming window? would it also work for WoW/ SC2? informative clip, thx!
I have two monitors: 27', 16 : 9, Full HD, gaming monitor from Dell and some Acer from 2006, that I've found on attic and will be replacing asap.
I have a 4k monitor for productivity and another one for gamming. I think this is the best monitors setup for now to me.
Zgo tech monitor arm are only $100 and I have a msi ultrawide 34’. The arm holds it very well! Worth the money
Will it work in a dual monitor setup? (One smaller monitor stacked on top of the curved)
@@mmaveryck depends on the monitor size, usually with stack monitor, the arms will have to be on a pole, which these companies don’t sell a pole version of their monitor arm. My is still holding well on my 34 ultrawide
Some ultra-wide monitors have multiple inputs so they can act like discrete monitors if you want to have something on the side while you play a game in full screen. Would that not work? Maybe you could use a KVM as a quick disconnect in case you want to toggle modes.
Ya know this was actually helpful. I think I'll go with an Ultrawide monitor in the end. I feel like I can handle the drawbacks, and if not I can always refund it.
I progressed from 2 x 24" 1080 dual setup to an ultrawide 34" 1440P + 15.6" 1080 laptop screen setup for work. I'm a 'sometime' gamer. My experience is if you're into gaming 2 x 1080p monitors might be the way go. Ultrawide 1440P requires a powerful/expensive GPU which I'm not prepared to buy. Lots of older games that I still like e.g. Crysis--don't do 1440p. I've tried 1080p gaming (NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1650) on the ultrawide. The visible desktop bordering the 1080p gaming window makes for an ok but not as immersive as I'd like it to be gaming experience. But I bought an ultrawide for work reasons so, that's ok.
I am using a dual monitor today and although it is fine, I am looking to change things up. I would love to cut the visual noise because even though I do like having my screens separated the cables being more abundant and having the bezel in the middle really is starting to get on my nerves and the most I do with my dual monitor setup is actually do my workouts using my main monitor and the second monitor I got twitch up so I can watch my friends stream in the mornings but I'd love to have a more immersed experience when I do game especially now that I got a steam deck and a deck that the plan is to use it to play games with my niece when she is a little older kind of an at home arcade deal so I'm not sure whether to go for an ultrawide or keep my dual monitors
Nice wallpaper!
I have 2x 24" curved Philips monitors connected to my 16gB RAM Mac mini M1 - it is beautiful
Do you know if you are using the dual controller function if you can still extend the displays on the two laptops
I Use Dual Dell P2317H Monitors for me its just amazing
thanks for this video
Great, informative video - quick question! I edit on two monitors. One is my full 'editing' screen and the other a full screen monitor of the video (I use Vegus like you - I can't beleive people still use DaVinci/Premier when Vegus is by far the easiest, quickest and most intuitive!) So my question is, can I buy a large widescreen monitor and have is split to 'editing area' on one side and 'monitor area' on the other? Would it still need two HDMI inputs from my PC to 'trick' it?
Thanks for your help!
you can just divide widescreen monitor into 2 or 3 monitors

haha wtf. So random to see you here! Love your vids man.
I made up my mind we are going ultrawide baby
Thank you sir
Nice one, enjoy!
Yes ultrawides look nice, but keep in mind that a 2x27" Dual-Monitor Setup has a lot more screen real estate than an 34" Ultrawide (assuming both are 1440p)
Not a lot. A LOT. :)
I just bought a Samsung G9 ultrawide but wondering if I should send it back and just get dual monitors. I'm not gaming, but would like less clutter for all of my needs (browsing, trading, and video editing).
Closest option to dual 27s is a super ultra wide. Samsung odyssey 49.5 inch screen is equal to 2 27 inch screens with no bezel in the middle
To everyone, just be aware that if you move from Curve monitor to Flat monitor, you will face one issue. Edges of flat screen will feel away while the center would seem bulging. It will feel as convex lens. Really annoying. And might feel weird and have strange feelings looking at the monitor. If you plan to have curved at work and at home then it might be ok. but moving back and forth from curve to flat might cause eye strain and feel strange. I have 34 inch curved and I wish I could go back to flat. And at 34 inch size curve is not worth it. It might be useful when you go ultrawide >38 inch and above. Otherwise say away from curve. And curve is going to cost more than flat in most cases.
I don't agree with the competitive point, because we react faster to things appearing out of the focus part of the vision. We need to think before act when the things run on front of our eyes, but when it appears on the sides, we just move by reflex, so the reaction time is really shorter
Very helpfull, I hv laptop Acer Preditor i 7 10th gen,32 gb ram, 1tb Ssd & hdd, RTX 3060 bought for upto 4k video editing on premier pro, so asking you and fellow editors who can please clarify - suggest which monitors i need to have ? l'am thinking to buy both, one 29 inches ultra wide 25xx by 1080 for larger view of premier pro and also one 27 inches 4k 16.9 monitor for colour grading? Any other combination or the same can be done with one monitor (34 inches ultra wide but it's not 4k) ? Looking solution not on too higher side for the price. Please suggest. Thx
2:34 I have just ordered and received exactly that product. Is it really that bad? Dont have ordered new 27 inch monitors yet though.
I was obssesed with dual setup for almost a decade. But when I tried UW34 inch. It was life changing 😻
because??...
thanks
thank you
Some ultrawides can be used as two displays - so basically a dual screen setup. This could fix some of the gaming issues while still giving you the option to have the advantages in productivity
@Meiariscando It is called "Picture by Picture" (PBP). You turn it on, connect the 2 cables you would connect to different monitors both to the ultrawide, so you have 2 cables going from your laptop to an ultrawide and you can use it as 2 monitors.
@Meiariscando I think i remember the LG ones having that. They give a you a spl LG monitor manager software also to install on your system. And that gives you a lot of shortcuts and productivity modes...like you could instantly split into 4 monitors (divided into 4 portions basically). I guess thats ideal for these stock market traders etc.
@Meiariscando Just look for an ultrawide monitor with "Picture by Picture". Sample would be LG 34WP85CN (2022 model).
Really useful pro's and con's - thanks !
I don't game, but I like having multiple programs on my screen. What's a better option?
Hi thanks for the video. Which model is that dell monitor that appears on the video?
Hi! It's an older model, ultrasharp u3417w. Pretty nice but I wish it had a slightly higher refresh rate

THX....new..subscriber...greetings..from... Croatia...
stacking two monitors, one above the other would be easier if you could lower the bottom one almost to desk level and then tilt it in order to face you. That way, you wouldn't need to strain your neck so much to look at the top one.
SUBSCRIBED!
Why not both? 🤷♂️
I work as a software developer and I have a 38" ultra wide monitor as my primary monitor and then a 34" ultra wide on top with a monitor arm. I also have my 16" MacBook screen on the side. The things I'm actively working with are always on the primary monitor. On the top monitor I can have a video, some documentation or todo-lists. On the laptop screen I have Slack. For me that works very well and I really like the screen real estate.
I would like to see this setup.
dual monitors will always be more versitile than one wide monitor. Dual monitor can be stacked up unto each other, you can make the other one vertical for specific purposes and a lot more.
I think an ultra wide with a vertical is the best way to go.
How about triple screen vs ultrawide?
Double screen places the bezels in the middle of your view area if you are playing most games.
I personally use a CRT as a second monitor. It's extremely cheap (got my current one for free), supports reasonable resolutions and refresh rates (1600x1200@85Hz atm) and movies, TV shows and your video often look amazing on it.
Is this a joke.. Right
@@francocolomba nope, high-end PC CRT's will actually do these kind of resolutions and refresh rates and you can still find them for very cheap. Plus they have very deep blacks in the right conditions making them great for content consumption, with only a few exceptions (for exemple shows that are very dark, like batman movies, will be almost unwatchable because of CRT's relatively low dynamic range).
CRT's are basically oled, but take up more space and are more flexible in terms of resolution, refresh rate and latency (they can have badically no latency if your GPU supports pure analog VGA, most newer GPU don't support it or convert from DP to VGA, which adds latency.)
Well you asked for it, so here it is :)
what if you use picture by picture mode, and make it so that its 2 monitors. does the performance take a hit when you minimize the game to change the the other window?
No performance issues but takes a toll on the ratio
Gained a lot of information from this video. Kudos to you.
Thanks!
Problem with dual monitors in my experience is that they are nice if you got lots of shit running that you might want for references etc, like a word document open as you edit something in InDesign.
But you can already do this with ultrawide even in Windows Vista. If you are casual user, dual monitors are mostly used for having stuff like Steam chat, web browser or Discord open while you play your game on main monitor, but if your game does not support borderless which is A LOT of games out there, you basically have to minimise the game to change something in the browser or your discord, some games crashes when you minimise because they are just that poorly designed. And again if you run borderless mode, you sacrifice performance, for some people it could mean 5 fps which would mean you go from stable 30 fps to 25 which is no bueno.
Most ultrawides allow you to just crop the sides of the monitor if you go fullscreen in 16:9 mode in the game, there different scaling methods inside the monitor settings most of the time.
But really, dual monitor setup has quirks and ultra wide has quirks too but its just one monitor and its far more versatile than dual monitors, considering these days ultra wides are like 200 euros for a high refresh rate one, I am starting to think it just makes no sense going for dual monitor anymore because at the end of the day if you are going to do work, ultra wide gets the job done, but if you game and you run borderless you can still just lock your game to half the screen and have your discord on the other halve, so effectively you still have the same setup except its in one screen.
Maybe ultrawide would be better than dual setup if you can also easily share your screen (I meant specific split screen) for Zoom meetings without installing any softwares to do so. Let's consider those who have company-provided PC that you would like to connect to personal monitor. Even if you buy LG ultrawide with onscreen software, it would be useless with company provided computers since the IT would prohibit you from installing or uninstalling softwares which means you could only use windows snap. At least with dual monitors, multitasking and sharing one screen for presentation during meeting is easier.
I am using 2 Lg Ultrawide 27inces monitors.
great video, could someone assist me in splitting an ultrawide screen monitor into sections, that i can actually MAXimize ? using windows 7. AGON ultra wide screen. the software included just makes a green grid but can not maximize in it .
I currently have 2 x monitors, but have just picked up a 34" curved Samsung monitor. I am hoping I have made a good decision. We'll see in the next week or two.
If I can have two displays on the bigger screen without dramas then I'll be chuffed.
How did it go? How was your experience this month going from 2 monitors to 1 ultra wide?
@@manumoroncini3939 Yeah they will always post half the story and then the vital part of the story is missing. LOL makes no sense to even post the first part, just a waste of time.
