I currently have a single 24" monitor and am looking to add a new larger monitor with the intention of keeping the 24" for instruments and the new larger display for an out-the-windcreen view. I've been looking at the current crop of 34" ultra wide monitors with the idea that it would be at typical monitor distance, perhaps a little higher than normal, with the old 24" below. Someone noted that a 40" or even one of the last 55" curved TVs would be less money and, with the extra height, fill my field of view somewhat more convincingly. The though it is would be placed "behind" the old 24". Thoughts?

I'd like to say Meigs, because that was the default flight for generations but I'm guessing that, as in the real world, its not there anymore.

I guess I'm wondering if it will be beneficial if one does not also have a monster CPU and/or GPU. :)

Can any one take a guess at how important/influential RAM will be? I'm sitting on a reasonably new i5-8500, RTX2060, with 16GB. Upgrading CPU or GPU are out of the question financially, but I could add another 16GB for a cool $100. Wondering if I should.
