These were hooked up to PCs (Best Buy wouldn't set up a 1440p monitor for me on a display mac mini; but they did have a 4k monitor hooked up to one).
That was the kicker for me; I've been researching the scaling thing (ie, double, then half thing that Mac OS does). I can live with that. Plus i'll probably run one monitor in landscape mode, the other in portrait mode (or at least have the option).
I do quite miss my 5K iMac screen from 2017. All downhill since then. But I cannot afford a Studio display, and that Asus 5K ProArt seems janky.
