Dwayne is (as always) right, but I don’t like the internal scopes because they’re sluggish, and I also think they eat up a little more system resources. I think you’re much better off getting external scopes like Blackmagic’s own UltraScopes, running a second (small, cheap) computer, and put it on a second monitor off to the side.

ScopeBox is also worth taking a look at. (Although a second computer is still required; the ScopeLink mode doesn’t work with Resolve.)
