Surely at 43” it’s just called a telly.
Can't just use a telly as a monitor though, they often have lots of lag between input signal and display. This isn't a problem for watching telly but on a computer it's horrible if the mouse doesn't move straight away when you move it, or keystrokes don't appear on the screen straight away, it's really disconcerting.
I went for a single 16:9 (so not wide or ultrawide) 43" 4K monitor:-
It has the same pixel size as my old dual 23" 1920x1080 setup, and the 43" is slightly less wide as than the two 23" mounted horizontally) but obviously no bezel in the middle and twice the height/pixels vertically. I use it at 100% scaling from ~70cm away, just as I did the old setup.
Acer DM431K.
Originally I was thinking dual 27" 4K monitors mounted vertically but opted for this instead. 4K in a 27" monitor would just have too small pixel size for me, so I'd end up scaling things, and then there's little point paying for a 4K monitor if you just upscale things on it.
