[QUOTE="Tuppy, post: 1918379, member: 408224"] I do appreciate all the help, information, and advice you've given me, Nick. Yes, the software that I use leaves me stuck in El Capitan. I create videos in Final Cut Studio that I put onto YouTube, I've written books in Adobe inDesign that are for sale in internet bookstores, and I use Photoshop CS6 for all the still imagery that goes into both of those. I have Adobe GoLive to create and work on my websites with. None of this software works reliably, or even at all, on any OS above El Capitan. After looking at lots of monitor reviews, I've ordered a [URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HDBD9CM/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Dell U3219 32-inch monitor[/URL] from Amazon for around $800. Reading the reviews by other people who have bought it, I see that some people love it while others hate it, so all I can do is give it a try and see if it suits my purposes. If it doesn't, there's always that Amazon 30-day return window. If there's any doubt that a better video card than the old Radeon 5770 in my Mac will run in it, then I better just stick with the 5770 for now, and see how it works with this monitor. I won't be able to get the higher resolutions that the Dell U3219 monitor is capable of, but I'm used to the 2560 X 1600 of my old Apple Cinema Display anyway. Besides, if higher resolution than that makes the text smaller and harder to read, then maybe I wouldn't want it anyway. The monitor will arrive next week, and we'll see how it goes. Tom [/QUOTE]
