    Hi all, so I've just bought a new v5k 27" i7 imac and while I'm excited by the upgrade from my old 2011 macbook pro I'm not wondering if much of my gear is now unusable.

    2nd monitor, 4k 27" or 32"? And HDCP 2.2?

    I'm in the market for a new imac to replace my 2010, and debating between a 27 or 32" second monitor. At 27" you've got to use scaling to have it readable, so you're essentially using the higher DPI to create cleaner text. But at 32", you don't need to scale, so you're essentially getting much...
