Comment on Ask HN: Ultrawide vs. Dual Monitors

Comments

I use both at once.

Left monitor is a Dell U3818DW 38" curved (3840x1600)

My right monitor Dell Ultrasharp U2718Q 27-Inch 4K IPS Monitor (3840 x 2160)

If you price them out, they are are very cheap per day - $4 a day.

Interesting. What do you mean by $4/day? In power consumption cost-wise? Never factored that into my decision but very interesting...The Dell U3818DW is on my radar.

1,629.98 = $1,119.99 + $509.99

$4.46 day = $1,629.98 / 365 days

I was a bit off, but you get the idea. I feel it is a good ROI.

haha I see what you mean. I usually keep my monitors for 5 years. I guess if I get the Dell, I can say $1119.99/ (365*5) = ~$0.61. Good idea!
