I'm doing some light gamedev, and with two 28" screens I feel like I could use a little bit more screen real estate.

The situation where this still feels lacking is when I'm trying to solve a problem and have a 3D game view, source code, object list and properties, debug output, debugger (watched variables, call stack) on one screen. Then on another screen I'll read documentation of whatever I'm trying to fix.

Productivity clearly had a jump when I added the second monitor, and I think I could get some boost still by either having larger monitors, or perhaps one big bigger curved one with two monitor inputs.

Also games. 3x24 inch screens felt like the best balance to me. I had 2x27 and 1x 24 for a while, but I dropped back to 1x27 and 1x24 and prefer it. That's what I roll these days
