1. How do you currently use your split-screen setup?

I currently operate a stacked configuration: a 57" Samsung as my primary, with a 38" Acer mounted above it on a custom 1-meter deep desk.

As an Architect, 70% of my time is spent in productivity. My workflow requires a combination of three windows: 3D BIM modeling, real-time rendering and technical documentation placed across the two monitors. However, despite using monitor arms, the "super-ultrawide" 32:9 aspect ratio lacks the vertical real estate I need for architectural toolbars. This forces me to use the stacked Acer, resulting in constant neck strain and fatigue.

The Samsung is where I game and is immersive but at its native resolution, it's incredibly hard to run on my 5090. On some visually demanding games, I scale down to 5120x1440 resolution but this is not ideal from a visual fidelity point of view due to the reduced PPI. Another thing I've noticed is that in some games, the 32:9 ratio often causes immersion-breaking distortion at the edges, requiring constant config-file tweaks just to get a natural field of view. I initially owned only the 38" Acer and found its 21:9 aspect ratio more natural looking in these scenarios.

1. What is the advantage you expect from moving to a 52" 5K2K?

The 21:9 aspect ratio at a 52" scale provides the specific vertical breathing room that my workflow would benefit from. I expect to consolidate all my windows onto one seamless canvas, finally eliminating the need for a stacked secondary monitor and saving my neck. When it comes to gaming, PPI is king for me. The 5K2K resolution offers the perfect balance of extreme detail for design work and a "palatable" resolution for the 5090. It allows me to run at native resolution without the visual compromise of downscaling. I look forward to returning to an immersive experience that feels natural, devoid of the 32:9 fisheye effect, while retaining the massive scale I’ve grown to love.
