A few weeks ago, I updated my setup for video editing (well, and everything else, since it's my main machine) - and I just love it so much! I had been using a 27-inch 2K monitor for a very long time, and it worked well for me, but lately I started to feel a serious lack of space. Especially when it comes to drag’n’dropping stuff between different programs - doing that on one monitor is a nightmare.

After some consideration, I decided to get a cheap 21-inch monitor and use it in portrait orientation for all the utilities, browser stuff (especially useful for scripts), scopes, etc. I feel like 21 inches is a perfect size - it has a similar PPI to my main 27-inch monitor, and it doesn’t look bulky in the setup - just enough space to work efficiently. And the dual monitor arm - it’s SO convenient!

Hope it won’t break my table. Until then, I’m happy as hell! Here’s a pic:
