3840 x 1024 is 3 x lower res screens at 1260 x 1024 each. Lots of low res pixels spread over three screens. So quality-wise, not pixel amount size, it is 1260 x 1024 vs 2650 x 1600. 2650 x 1600 30" monitors are by far higher quality and actually is the highest quality monitor res at this time. There is one 3840 res monitors which is $18,000 and are only 22" diagonal for medical purposes. For those who may be reading this. The resident know-it-all-spammer-obsessive quoter/arguer cannot admit when he is wrong on all counts.
