>/g/ is NOT your personal tech support team or personal consumer review site.
I mean why nobody gives a shit about thi
>>62321786
Look closely at this image.
They just stretched it to fit that aspect ratio
THAT'S NOT EVEN A SQUARE
>>62322097
so what should i get instead?
>>62321940
You're fucking clueless go buy your shitty monitor you flaming /v/ tard
>>62322485
so instead of giving me a reason why i should buy a 4k monitor your just going to shout?
>>62321786
It's only 99% sRGB.
>>62321786
It is not 4:3 Acer monitor from 2010 that uses VGA only.
>>62322548
not him but this is the average discussion level on this board and on every other board here. don't expect much just don't give them a (You)
>>62321860
it depends on your needs you can't expect people to guess that for you
>>62321786
It's a fantastic monitor. It's unbeatable for a single-monitor setup. You won't be disappointed. It's slightly pricey, but it's a best-in-class display.
>>62322222
hey he's talking about the ad image, not about the monitor itself. it's not like 21:9 stretches your images.. also nice digits
>>62322896
why going curved tho, what's the point?
>>62322928
i just like the idea of a curved monitor and as far as im aware there is few to no non curved ultrawides
>>62321786
If you plan on using that computer as strictly an internet/workstation then ya its not bad.
If you want to watch movies n shit I wouldn't recommend it, unless black bars dont really bother you. Similar thing with games I'd imagine, although honestly most new games probably support ultra wide resolutions (I could be wrong though)
>>62323003
pretty sure i have seen half life support ultrawide its all about how its rendered
>>62321786
>https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00PXYRMPE/
its 21:9 instead of 32:9, wait pleb.
>>62322965
I have the feeling you are going to pay more for this curved thing but there are other 21:9 monitors sold at a similar price so eh. they look good in multi monitor setup tho
>>62323038
well to be fair i wont be getting it till around feburary when tax returns come but i like to start looking early though
>>62321786
REEEEEEEEEEEEE KILL YOURSELF APPLETARDLET REEEEEEE
>>62323038
>not waiting for googolplex:googolplex aspect ratio
A reminder that we could be using 4k 120Hz oled monitors with 0.1ms of response time right now if dell hadn't fucked up
>>62321786
I want a 144hz HDR monitor. What's good that won't cost me an arm?
>>62325238
but that's literally 1:1
ya dingus

Most movies are in 2.35(2.40) format and that fits ultrawide perfectly. Normal screen is about 1.85 format and that's a standard for 16:9 broadcasts. Ultrawide adds more space to 16:9 and essentially makes your screen 2.4 cinemascope screen. Most of the modern (and lots of older) games support 2560x1080/3440x1440 resolutions perfectly but now once in a while you will need to tinker a bit to make them work properly. It's a solid choice and in some games the extra wide view is really nice. It can be hard to go back to 16:9 after that. But it depends, if you play get 21:9 but if you are doing work then 2 or 3 normal 16:9 panels are more suitable for productivity.

I'm using 2560x1080 because 3440x1440 is too much for even GTX 1080 when playing. Here's a shot from Wildlands. Extra space is nice for idling, you can browse and watch stupid chinese cartoons at the same time on same screen. However for 3d animation I would get 2 separate screen. Not sure about how it works when coding, maybe 21:9 is okay if you have intelligent windowing system such as Ratpoison or similar.

Here's 16:9 version for comparison. My autism gets tickled for some reason.
