Working on a 32"

My grandma upgraded to a bigger TV. I got her old 32". I set it up as a monitor. Man it's HUGE for a computer screen. I'm only like a foot from the monitor. The lettering is like Jurassic park big I might need a new video card. I can only go 1360X768.

Nah, it might be the native resolution to the TV, don't think the video card would help

VGA or HDMI? was it even a 1080p TV?

I'm thinking of ditching my triple monitor setup for a single 4k 32".

I've thought about consolidating down to one monitor, but multiple is just so much better for multitasking.

Yeah, I'd have to change my methods a bit (no more maximizing on multiple screens) but more vertical pixels and less neck movement is kind of appealing. So is getting some desk space back.
