I currently have (2) 24" HP Monitors and I also use the screen on my laptop. The parts I'm working on are getting more complex, and my eyes are aging.
Between MasterCam windows, and Solidworks, plus having prints and other reference materials open, I need more real estate. I just recently sucked it up and increased the size of the fonts and icons in my Mastercam settings.
I spoke to the boss, and he said order some new monitors. I think 32 would probably be too big for my desk setup, but I was looking at 27/28" monitors. Would it be worth it for me to step up to 4K? I don't think I need fancy gaming monitors, but then, I don't know jack about monitors.
I don't want to abuse the company money, but I also want to get something that's going to work for me. What suggestions do y'all have??
Has anyone tried the Ultra Wide monitors, instead of dual monitors?
Workstation is an i7 HP Zbook, with a Quadro T1000.
