I am in the throes of migrating back from Mac to PC. I have purchased the computer but still need to purchase a new monitor. Meanwhile I am using my old HP ZR24w monitor which whilst having a nice matte screen is a bit long in the tooth and has a max resolution of 1920x1200. The "mistake" is that I am running it next to the outgoing 27" iMac with its glorious 5k screen (the only thing I will miss) and there is quite a contrast!
I had originally intended to go for a full 10-bit solution but decided that this was overkill for what is meant to be a hobby. I then settled on a 27" Eizo (I like things to last for 10 years!) with a max resolution of 2560x1440. However, having got used to the 5k screen on the iMac I am now wondering if I should be getting a 4k monitor for the PC, mindful of the problems with text scaling with Adobe apps. Or is 2k enough?
I have read lots of online reviews but I am still undecided so grateful for any thoughts for or against and for an idea of what other members are using.
Many thanks.
