Hi,
Looking for advice on a monitor please. I currently have a i7-8750H with NVIDIA 1060 laptop (Recoil 2 17"), but plan to upgrade to one of the 17" 3060 laptops in the next few weeks. (I know desktops are better for price/performance, but I like using on a sofa too.)
This will mostly be for work, but I will also be playing games (including Warthunder, Total War series).
* I think ~24" is the right size for my setup (desk isn't that big).
* Most monitors of that size seem to be 1920x1080, I don't know if 1440p is a something to consider (either from the point of view of working with a mobile 3060, or worth it at 24")?
* I'm intrigued by curved and ultra-wide setups, but whilst more immersive for gaming, I'm not sure how well they'd do for productivity, so it may be safer to stick with flat and 16:9 or similar.
* I don't particularly have a budget, it seems up to £300 has plenty of options for 24", but I can spend more if there's a benefit to doing so.
* I have separate speakers so don't need them, an audio out might be useful.
