How Many Monitors Do You Use?

I am using one high quality and color calibrated 24" display. Been thinking about picking up a second one though.

I have 3 monitors which is perfect for me (web dev)- one small one above which has useful windows open like KeepassX, Mamp, Filezilla, Chrome Devtools. One with the browser and one with a code editor like sublime. I find that easier than using one monitor and switching desktops etc. Plus I feel like a cool hacker with lots of monitors..

I use 2x27" 1920x1080 screens for modelling and rendering. The only thing that would change this arrangement would be a 5K screen but the cost way to prohibitive for now.

Do you use multiple monitors? If so, how many? And would you recommend multiple displays or one large screen?

I have been using 2 monitors sinse 1998, my only PCI slot of the Performa 6360 in that time hass a Matrox video card .
Later, when O changed for a Beige G3, I gat an ATI Radeon 7000 PCI, witch I flashed to MAC, and keep using it till my G4 DA retires ...
But recently ( july 2015 ) I changed to a Dell 34 Ultra Wide, and with this big monitor I really do not feel the need for a second monitor ...

I'm using a single 27" 4K monitor but I've been looking around for good deals on larger 4K displays because 27" is too small to use 4K at its native resolution.

48-inch is a good size for 4k for desktop work.

4. 2x24" portrait on each side of 40" curved 4K, plus 34" curved on top.
I multitask heavily and require a LOT of space. Plus I hate switching windows. This solves it somewhat.
