Hi,
I was thinking of upgrading my Samsung 305T monitor (2560x1600 pel, 30.5") an I see that large format (48") TVs are available at competitive prices with resolutions of 3840x2160 pel and refresh rates at 60Hz.
I know there are actual monitors available with those resolutions but they are physically smaller and therefore higher resolution which my old eyes can't make use of. What I want is more screen estate at the same resolution as my current monitor.
I did the sums and the pixels per inch of a 48" UHD screen is rather close to my 30.5" screen at 2560x1600 so I wondered if these are useable as monitors for long term all-day daily use ? Anyone here done that ? They've got compatible inputs with my display card so...
I could just buy one and if it's no good relegate it to the living room as a TV but I really want a f*** o** great 65"er for that and couldn't justify it if I'd just bought a 48" telly
Thanks,
Boo
