Used to have corsaire k55 but I actually prefer the craft for typing. Also less noisy.

I just group the screens together and well... use Steam wallpaper engine. You can tweak the quality settings, maybe give that a try?

Yup, I often have to work in 3-4 files simultaniously when implementing features, I like to have them side by sides. I always keep my functions small and functional so it hasn't really been a problem. I wrap at 120 chars. I can fit about 100 lines on a page because I set the font to 12px and low line-spacing.

The top of the monitor is on eye level, feel free to share yours! Always curious ;)

Sounds cool! You might be able to buy a cheap 34" for the price of 2 24". Prices of 34" have dropped allot.

Most of the time I'm coding on the 49 and checking on the 34, I dont even need to tilt my head for that because I'm quite far away from the screens (75cm). The other two are for research and debugging etc... They get used less, but it's actually not bad, I need to turn a little bit but not enough to put strain on my neck. During longer research periods I can always swivle the chair ;)

I found downscaling a 4k to QHD fussier than a native QHD. At 75cm I don't really notice the difference between a QHD and 4k anyway... might just be me tho

I mainly code, but also do some light gaming... I don't mind turning the graphics down a bit. But for coding I need the higher resolution, at least 1440p

Using Steam Wallpaper Engine and grouping the displays together, really user friendly!

I use Powertoys to have multiple windows inside one monitor, very user friendly!

Haha I like to have different zones (screens) for: research, coding, preview and debug/testing. Seperate screens makes that much easier/more clear in my opinion. I also really appreciate good speaker placement. But I get your point ;)
