Monitor size related to system specifications?

View Sonic LCD Display 27" Monitor 


We have a Dell 19 inch and using dual monitors with a 21 inch Acer.

We have thought to replace the 19 with the above 27 inch.


Any compatibility issues with the older Windows 10 system?

With 500 total storage but under 100 being utilized.


Thanks.

The monitor will be bought sold between persons and no way to check resolution. A friend wanted me to get them a 19. The funds they gave me for the purchase would let me get a 27 for myself and just give them my 19. I spoke to them about it and since they are using a 16 CRT type they would be ok with my 19. All monitors discussed are quite old.

i suggest that he just tries it - repace the monitor and test; if not good, put the first one in again

Extremely old cards, might not be able to display 2 x FULL HD resolutions, but that's really like a decade ago.
...........The computer and all monitors discussed are a decade old. But, I'm using the computer with a 19 inch and 22 inch monitors.

Can not try them to decide. Buying from sellers through FB Marketplace for items under $30 don't give you a chance to take a test drive.
Again "Extremely old cards" is not a model number.  You need to look up the model of the cards.  A GeForce 210 which was a basic card when it was released 12 years ago supports a maximum resolution of 2560x1600 whereas the GeForce4 MX 460, released 19 years ago, supports up to 3840x2160 (2x Full HD).
