Hi folks,
Thanks in advance for any help.
I have a 2018 Mac Mini arriving soon with 32 gig of RAM and the upgraded processor. My issue is monitor choice. I would like a 34 inch wide monitor for the work I do, but I’ve seen lots of articles suggesting that even a screen as large as 27 inches is rubbish at 4K due to the scaling? The options I’ve found so far are:
1. Samsung 34 inch WQHD, which is a 3440 by 1440 resolution screen.
Or...
2. Samsung 32 inch 4K at 3840 by 2160 resolution.
My question is which option would work best and for what reasons? If 27 inch is a push at 4K then is 32 inch going to be horrendous? I really can’t get my head around the maths!
Incidentally both of these monitors connect via HDMI, not USB-C, which seems a shame.
Finally, in an ideal would TWO 21 inch 4K displays be the ultimate setup, assuming that 21inch is the ‘sweet spot’ for 4K. And what strain would this put on the computer?
Many thanks
Steve
