View 4 screens in-one with new Dell 43-inch 4K with 1080p panels

Running multiple display monitors on the same PC, with each of them capable of showing its own specific content, is definitely something that someone can get used to in a hurry if they have a lot of PC-related work to cover.

Well, for those who have been doing something like this for years with multiple HD PC monitors daisy-chained together across your work space, the new Dell Multi-Client 43 inch 4K UHD monitor simplifies things enormously while saving plenty of space across your physical desktop.

Dell’s newest P4317Q (also known as the Dell 43 Multi-Client Monitor) is designed to alleviate these problems. While the display can run as a single monitor at 3840×2160, its real strength is as a bezel-less option to display up to four separate desktops, each at 1080p.

Multi-monitor desktops are popular with both professional computer users and enthusiast gamers who want a more immersive widescreen experience, but setting up these systems can be somewhat difficult. It’s generally recommended that you use three of the same display to minimize issues related to mixing and matching different resolutions, as well as to avoid differences in color gamut and calibration from changing how work appears from one monitor to the other.

Dell designed the Multi-Client Monitor with the finance industry in mind, but it's able to run four independent clients of any kind at once. Plus, it gets rid of the cable nightmare that comes with manually setting up four monitors on a single desk.

The P4317Q costs $1,350 and is available to purchase right now. It's certainly an impressive piece of technology, but maybe that high price point is meant to offset expected lower sales of Dell's multi-monitor stands.

Dell has been a leader in office computing needs for years now and apparently the company clearly understands that having access to multiple screens at the same time is something a lot of developers, traders and other professionals who stay glued to their PCs will find extremely useful. With this in mind, the single giant 43 inch P4317Q Multi-Client is ready right out of the box to handle up to four different decent-sized Full HD display spaces.

Though we have seen even better giant 43 inch 4K monitors in terms of overall specs and connectivity options, the P4317Q is an impressive tool indeed as far as workflow requirements go, with a total screen resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels of 4K glory that can play at a 60Hz refresh rate and a solid, rich contrast ratio of 1000:1, with a maximum brightness that sits at a stunningly luminous 350 nits.

On top of this the P4317Q offers up an 8ms response time, wide IPS panel display viewing angles of 178 degrees and multiple standard connectivity options which include HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2 and Mini DisplayPort 1.2 along with a VGA port. Furthermore, Dell has given the new P4317Q Multi-client a built-in audio capacity that’s definitely above average for a mere PC monitor, with two internal 8-watt speakers. There’s also a robust 4-port USB 3.0 hub built into the P4317Q.
