One of the fun parts about getting a PC going is all the customization, and that all comes together in your monitor - where you actually see your computer! Do you have any resolution, refresh rate, form factor preferences? How about a sweet spot for the amount of monitors?

I have 3 monitors - the middle one (so it's my gaming monitor) is 28" 1440p@144Hz, just a regular (but good looking) LED screen though. The refresh rate on it is most important to me, but I have enjoyed the 1440p upgrade since getting it as this is my first experience with it.

My other two monitors are unremarkable 25" 1080p@60Hz monitors, although I do really like the colors on the left one. The left one usually has videos/music and the right one doesn't really have an assigned task, just if I'm keeping a website/notes/whatever on the side for reference, or just saving for later.

Another PC related thread? Time to nerd out.

I have 3 monitors.

My main monitor is a Dell (S3422DWG) 34" 3440x1440 144hz. I got it around black friday for about $400 a few years ago. No plans to upgrade but i do want to get an oled or mini led monitor when this monitor is getting close to its end.

I have a Acer Nitro QG241Y S3 24" 180Hz (1080p) monitor as my secondary. Yes i know insane refresh rate but it was only like $90 and needed to replace a failing monitor.

And my last one is XPPen Artist Pro 24 (Gen 2) 165Hz Pen Display. Pretty fantastic drawing tablet i got refurbed for $500 (cost $1000)

Like i said before. I want my next monitor to be an oled or mini led. 144hz just like my current monitor. I will stick to just 3 monitors because thats all i really need.
