I cannot use a screen grab for this.Įxhibit one: what happens if the 4K display is set to 100% scaling and you drag an application to straddle across to a 1080p display (ignore the mottling effect, that’s just an artefact from snapping the screen):Įxhibit two: what happens if you have the 4K display set to 200% scaling and perform the same straddling act: – if you drag an application so it straddles the two displays, it all goes wrong. So if the mouse is halfway down the 4K display, and you move it right onto a 1080p display, it jumps to the bottom of the screen. Essentially, it retains the pixel coordinates from the 4K display and applies them to the 1080p display. – if you move the mouse from the 4K screen to the 1080p screen, it jumps vertically. Windows is smart enough to let you have different display settings for each screen. More significant for me though is what happens if you have multiple displays. One is that occasionally you hit an application that does not understand the scaling – like Open Live Writer – and the text is tiny. There is a snag though, actually a couple of snags. The display is now back to 1080p in terms of the size of most text but at higher resolution and text looks great. Therefore I scale 200% (Windows display settings). What you should do, says Prokopov, is to scale the display by an integer value. It is quite fun at full resolution but the text is too small to read. Note though that you cannot run at full resolution unless your display is huge mine is 27” because it has to fit on the desk. Prokopov is right text looks much better. I also did not want to spend £1700 or more. I looked into it but you need to get a TN (twisted nematic) display which involves some compromises in viewing angles and colours. I did not do what Prokopov also suggested which is to get a display with 120Hz refresh rate. One of my displays is dying (needs new capacitors I suspect) so I took the bait and stumped up for a 4K screen. Prokopov’s point is that if you spend all day looking at text (and I do), then you should make the effort (and expense) of getting to display properly your eyes will thank you and you can work with less strain. You should aim for 150 or more PPI a 27″ 1080p display will get you 81.59 PPI.

You can use the tool here to calculate the PPI (pixels per inch). Not nice to have,” he says, going to to explain why standard 1080p (1920 x 1080 pixel) displays have insufficient resolution to display text nicely (unless the display is also small, such as on a 13” laptop). “I optimize my setup to showing really, really good letters.

I made the mistake of reading this post where programmer Nikita Prokopov explains why it is time to upgrade your monitor, particularly if you are a software developer.
