If its cinematic 3rd person game or something that plays best on controller I will put it on my projector 120" screen.
If its mouse keyboard or plays better on a smaller screen then its 28" monitor.

Acer 27 inch IPS monitor
180 hz @ 1080 with Freesync and HDR

My gaming PC is mostly for strategy games so my monitor suits me just fine for now. I have a 65 inch OLED for Series X and PS5 Pro.

32" 1440p. More than enough for me. I just bought an Ultrawide over the summer after I thought I wouldn't like it as much and boy was I wrong on that. Once more games start supporting that, I will be happy camper.

I've spent a couple days with the Gigabyte M32U and while it's a nice monitor, I'm gonna be returning it. The main reason is that it just doesn't get bright enough. For $550 it should be way brighter. Everything about the monitor is great except that one thing (also for some reason it doesn't have full bandwidth hdmi 2.1 ports which means you cant get full res/hz/color depth over hdmi). I ordered an Innocn 32m2v for the same price and it should be here Friday, it's miniLED so hopefully it's better. Didn't want to spend over $1000 to step up to something like the BenQ EX321UX, at that point just get OLED. Lets hope the offbrand monitor doesn't have build quality issues.

There's nothing like getting comfy in the couch with your mouse and keyboard and enjoying RTS on your plasma-tv.

55" living room TV for my PC gaming. In the bed room, I have my Steam Deck and Surface Pro 11 on a 24". I try to use the Surface for some gaming albeit not ideal for gaming. Steam Deck for all other games when i dont want to be in the living room.

Ended up returning the Innocn 32m2v as well. The local dimming was really bad and blocky, it was especially noticeable on text and it made text boxes look like they had vignetting or that problem with panel uniformity some cheap LEDs where the backlight is dark on the edges. Also, some people may not care but the packaging it came with was really cheap and the box practically fell apart even before I opened it (no damage to contents - but it's worrying). I ended up with the KTC M32P10, and I think I'm going to keep this one. HDR is really good, it has full bandwidth ports so I can get full 4K144HZ at 10bit color depth, and the local dimming is fantastic even if it's not quite as good as an OLED. I got a flash sale on Amazon for $600 and I think this is probably the best monitor I've ever owned. Good shit, if anyone is looking for a high quality display without worrying about burn-in I'd say this is about as good as you can get <$1000 right now.
 
34" 3440x1440, 175Hz

Never in a million years would I have thought I'd like a curved monitor, but decided to take the leap when I got a new gaming PC last year and I absolutely love the wide screen for both gaming and productivity.

I use a steam deck. If not steam deck, a 15 inch laptop screen. That is the largest screen I have in my house.

32" 4k IPS (144hz) horizontally (main), and 2nd 27" 4k IPS vertical (60hz) (sub)
Thinking about getting one 49" or 57" ultrawide, maybe next year or so - depending on what they release next year.
I do like IPS as I use my machine mainly for work (color accuracy being the most important) though.. but love OLED for gaming - so I am thinking about building a gaming machine for OLED TV.
