Hi.
I own a Mac Pro 5.1 and use it with a
2GB HIS Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition IceQ Turbo graphics card.
At the moment i have a 28" 1920x1200 monitor.
Now i would like to get a new one.
I have two in mind
- AOC Q3279VWF with 32" and 2560x1440
- Samsung U28E590D with 28" and 3840x2160
Which one would you choose and why?
I do not want to spend more than around 250$.
I will use it for daily work, browsing, mail and youtube.
Thanks a lot

I have a 32" 2560x1440 BenQ BL3200PT and the display and pixel sizes are excellent for text and general work, IMO. Very comparable to the 24" Apple LCD at 1920x1200, so images and font sizes will be a little bit tighter than what you are working with at the moment. (The BL3200PT has some odd quirks, like very slow input recognition, but it's a nice monitor otherwise.)

For general work I think I'd go with the AOC on your list.
