    HDR 1000 nits vs 400 nits

    Why pro gamers tend to favor 24-25" monitors vs bigger (27" and more) ones?

    I was wondering why professional gamers tend to favor 24-25" monitors vs bigger (27" and more) ones? Is it because if you have a bigger screen you need to force more your view to focus on specific spots? Or because the mouse movement from one corner to another takes more time? Other reasons?
