Well my current screen I have in the computer is 3840x2160 and I don't have any issues with the scaling and it looks fantastic. I just hate how dark the edges of the screen get at even the slightest angle.

on both ubuntu and windows its a pain in the ass on my asus TP500, especially when trying to use the touchscreen
if you think you can do it then get a 1920x1080

In future make sure what panel type your display has. TN panels have horrendous viewing angles and colour reproduction, it used to be that the alternatives had unacceptable response times/refresh rates for gaming but these days there's really no reason to not get an IPS panel. They have great viewing angles and colours with minimal compromises compared to TN panels

Ah ok thanks. I didn't really know what the cause of the dark edges on the screen was, but I assumed it had something to do with the finish(matte, glossy, etc.). I'll have to look into the different types of panels and what my laptop has because it currently just has the stock screen that came built into it.
Edit: I just did a quick search and got tons of results involving people complaining about the Lenovo Y50 having stuffty TN panels, so I guess that answers my question. I'll have to see if I can buy an IPS screen for it. Thanks for the help.
