I’m in the market for a monitor for programming. Ideally:
- A monitor that can be adjusted vertically
- A monitor that can rotated 90 degrees, so the long side is vertical
Either one of these (or both) specifications is preferred, though both is not necessary. I’m on a budget, so nothing more than $500 USD.
Display rate doesn’t matter (60hz is fine), and 1080p is fine too.
Anyone know of any good monitors like this?
Edit: By “rotated 90 degrees”, I’m referring to the monitor being able to rotate on its stand, not being mounted on its side.
Yeah, there’s plenty of VESA mounts that will allow you to rotate the monitor, move it up/down, side-to-side, and tilt it forwards and backwards as needed
As for ones that will automatically change the orientation that things are being displayed when you turn the monitor from portrait to landscape, if that’s what you’re looking for, that’s a tougher nut to crack, I’m sure they’re out there but they’re not common, or (last I checked) cheap. But changing the orientation is as simple as Ctrl+Alt+arrow key (I think some newer Intel display drivers have changed that, but I haven’t looked too far into that)
