Work for an independent development studio, I do graphics work and code monkey shit, so I have the "pleb tier" setup, but my right and left monitors are on quick release swivels.

This. 16:10's extra height turns into extra width in portrait and it makes quite a difference.

OP here,

Regarding 16:10, those are nice but hard to find and way too expensive for what they offer. You can buy many 16:9 displays for 1 16:10 display. It's just not worth it.

And if you think about it, 27/16 = 1.687 which is pretty close to 16:10 = 1.6

Best displays have a ratio close to golden ratio. It's the most aesthetically pleasing ratio and is found in nature (including human body as well).

4:3 is just fool-thier though. it's ugly and looks wrong.

Creators of what exactly? 3D modelling and video editing is much better on a horizontal setup than vertical.

AKA children

CUrved is stupid tho.

You stupid little shit, 16:10 is the only viable ratio, it' mathematically superior to your gay excessively wide 16:9. And who actually needs 3 monitors aside from gaymers? KYS summerfag

I agree on the fool and full retard tiers

One single large 21:9 monitor is the ultimate programming productivity setup. You have have at least 3 good sized square windows (say, code, terminal, and browser), and can adjust the width of the windows as you please. 3 vertical monitors are nice but the screen edges are a constraint and having all that vertical space isn't all that necessary. Sometimes you need a window larger or smaller than the width of the monitor.

>>61808402
Is it curved? if it is then that's the issue
You're paying more for shit, and as you eat shit monitor manufacturers think it's a good idea to release more of their monitor curved when in fact we just want this cancerous trend to stop.

Seems that most of you are just inviting shitty posture, not only that though, do you people even understand how eyes work? There's a reason why horizontal monitors won.

While the pixels are there to do a ton of work on the 4K alone, having the option to place a browser or even a few videos/applications on the portrait displays is a real convenience.

I have a 22" 16:9 monitor for normal stuff and a 42" 16:9 TV next to it for movies. What tier is that?

When I rotate the 22" one by 90 degrees, it lines up with the 42" one, which is on a wall mount. But I can't actually keep the big one going all the time because it's a plasma display that uses 400W when running.

>>61818279

No it isn't. Only good spot to view it from is at the focal spot and that's impossible to position yourself properly in since it's so small. Not to mention that your eyes employs stereo vision which means curved screen is doubly-retarded.

>>61818322
