What did the real models show?

The table lists three 43 inch monitors from ViewSonic and Dell. Their bodies are 38.1 in96.7 cm to 38.5 in97.8 cm wide, or 0.6 in1.5 cm to 1.0 in2.6 cm more than the screen itself. With under 1 in (2.5 cm) between them, the frame rarely decides whether one of these fits.

Without its stand, the ViewSonic VX4381U-4K and ViewSonic VX4381-4K are the thinnest at 2.3 in5.8 cm deep. At the other end, the Dell P4326QEB is 2.7 in6.8 cm deep.

Weights run from 27.8 lb12.6 kg for the ViewSonic VX4381-4K to 28 lb12.7 kg for the Dell P4326QEB. A monitor arm rated for 28 lb12.7 kg or more covers the weight of every model here.

With their stands, the makers list each one at 26.0 in65.9 cm tall. On their stands, they take 10.2 in25.9 cm to 13.6 in34.5 cm of desk depth.

They use two VESA patterns, from 100 x 100 to 200 x 100 mm. The most common is 200 x 100 mm, on two of them, but check your exact model before you buy an arm.

Enter the space on your desk, under any shelf or cabinet. We check it against the screen, and the table above shows what each stand adds.

How far should you sit from a 43 inch monitor?

Desk screens are usually viewed from 20 to 30 in (50 to 75 cm). The table shows how much of your view a 43 inch screen fills at each distance. It feels very wide at every distance in the table, from 18 to 32 in46 to 81 cm, so expect to turn your head.

Which resolution suits a 43 inch monitor?

Higher resolution looks sharper but makes text smaller, so you need display scaling. At 43 inches, 1920 × 1080 gives 51 PPI and 3840 × 2160 gives 102 PPI. The table shows the Windows scaling each needs.

At this size, 1920 × 1080 and 2560 × 1440 look soft and 3840 × 2160 looks clear. All of them work at 100% scaling, so nothing needs enlarging.

ResolutionPixel densityWindows scalingPixels vanish beyond
1920 × 1080 51 PPI 100% 67.1 in 170.5 cm

3840 × 2160 102 PPI 100% 33.6 in 85.2 cm

How does a 43 inch monitor compare with other sizes?

The next size up, the 45 inch ultrawide monitor, has 9% less screen area. The next size down, the 38 inch ultrawide monitor, has 35% less screen area. Area grows with the square of the diagonal, so a few inches feel bigger than they sound.

That makes the size up a small step, and the size down a big step.

How we measure

Screen width = diagonal x a / sqrt(a^2 + b^2) and height = diagonal x b / sqrt(a^2 + b^2) for an a:b screen. Viewing angle = 2 x arctan(half the screen width / distance). Pixel visibility uses 1 arcminute, the limit of 20/20 vision.
