Nice, that's pretty awesome to know and it pretty much answers Andi's question. But you are right, yikes, talk about tiny itsy bits fonts eh?

Andi B.:
Okay seems the probability that it works for me is high. Now found the following types -
- Acer EB490QK, 48.5", 705€, 91 DPI, DP, VGA, 3xHDMI
- iiyama X4372UHSU-B1, 42.5", 524€, 103,7 DPI, 2xDPv1.2, 2xHDMI, matte/anti-glare
- HP Z43, 42.5", 767€, 103,7 DPI, DP, mDP, HDMI, anti-glare

Advantage of the Acer is it's size. With 91 DPI our usual fonts should be very good readable even a bit bigger than on the 24" 1920x1200 with 94 DPI. And VGA. But not sure if it's really anti-glare/matte.

iiyamas plus is the price.

Andi,

The 32" Samsung 850 I have here sure feels pretty "huge" when placed in a corner unit of a desk (L-shaped office desk setup). Honestly, I can't even imagine going to anything bigger...

If you are going to go even bigger make sure you have the room for it.

Andi B.:
Now I had a chance to test a ~32" 3840x2160 monitor. Unfortunately it did not work for me. No clue if it's cause of my old Panorama. I think I use something like 1.07. Every OS/2 installation I tried came up with standard VGA 640x480 resolution without any chance to change it to another setting. Tried PanUtil without success. Guess Panorama couldn't read or interpret EDID information correctly.

Of course the same setup worked with Win in 3840x2160.

Hi Andi B.

I don't remember if you are using ArcaOS, but the latest version of the driver on AN is "panorama-1.15.exe". If you can update it , it will be good at least to know that you are at the latest level.

Can you please tell us to the motherboard model, GPU and Monitor you are using to try to get "3840x2160" ?

Regards
