So I'm finally getting around to adding on a second 4k monitor, since I use a dual screen setup, however that's a 4k and a 1440p. I would rather have two 4k monitors and then use my 1440p on another PC. Right now I have the Dell P2715Q, however there are a few other monitors that have caught my interest that I'm considering getting too.

- Samsung UE590
- Dell S2817Q
- LG 27UD68-P
- LG 27MU67

Out of these, which would be the best option or should I just get another Dell P2715Q?

I, personally, would not bother using 2 x 4k panels on one system. However, if I were to do that, I'd prefer them to match, so I'd get another P2715Q. If you don't really care about the monitors matching, I'd say to just get whatever is cheapest.

Secondary 4k monitor is really just so I have that extra room to keep more tabs open like Steam chat, email, system monitoring, ect. What I'm trying to accomplish with this is get the best one for gaming, which if that is the one I already have, then I'll just get another P2715Q. I know they may be the exact same, however if one looks better than another or any notable difference that would benefit anything, I would get that for my gaming monitor while the one I have now becoming my secondary monitor.
