jojo a shit

no u

are there any actually inexpensive sub-24" displays with displayport not just hdmi/dvi/vga

kinda sick of having to deal with big warty adapters in my display-umbilical

dont care about contrast or even response times, only even care about resolution in that it's gotta be bigger than XGA

<24 or =<24?

because someone posted a 24" 4k screen in the black Friday thread which was pretty cheap

under

tbh even 21" is pushing it for me but i can deal with that

i like 17" the most

comfiest size tbh

why do you need DP on those sizes? anything more than 1080p would be useless anyway

you could just use whatever port at this point

because all my hdmi and dvi ports on both video cards are in use

and only displayports are left, i have adapters but hate adapter

makes it a pain to manage the monitors-umbilical

when you have an inch and a half thick bundle of cable running along the wall the last thing you need is to add four inches of adapters

you could put the adapter on screen side / behind the screen if that's the only reason

the weight makes the connection unstable since displayport isn't latching

or use a DP-HDMI cable

DP on video card side, HDMI on monitor side

dp-hdmi cable doesn't work for this, need an active adapter

the only monitors I can think of with your constraints are professional eizo devices >1k

tbh i may even go for usb3.0 displays if there really isn't any sub-$200 monitor with DP

that isn't fuckoff huge

maybe you can find older ones from 2010-2011, iirc that was when they started using DPs

second hand eizos

considering 3/4 of my monitors are dell 1708s, i wouldn't mind older, any good pixel/$ models i should look for?

flexscan series are the cheaper models

you might have luck with those , I can't suggest you specific models

well, 3.5 since i got a tv for free in a raffle i stuck over my rack to manage stuff that doesn't have IPMI on

holy shit that price range is wild, ebay search'd flexscan and i get $120, $300, $1000, $550, $140

yes new ones with higher specs are >1000

EIZO FlexScan EV2730QFS3 is a nice meme

1:1 display

1920x1920

3 of them next to each other wouldn't even be that bad

yes

or 16:16 for the marketing
