I went from a typical 1080p monitor to an amazing 21:9 monitor last year, I absolutely loved it however when games didn't support the resolution I was limited to a very small screen considering the entire screen size was only 29 inches. With my new rig I switches to your typical 1440p monitor, 2560 by 1440 at 27 inches. Now I noticed LG has released a new screen with a whopping resolution of 3440 by 1440, and its 34 inches meaning I wont be limited to such a small screen space when I am playing on a 16:9 ratio (I know you can stretch but I don't like doing that). Now here is the question I am hoping some of you guys with experience regarding this resolution can answer. Should I pull the trigger? I have a rig with a 4930k overclocked to 4.5ghz and 3 780ti's in Tri Sli. I have never games at such a high res before and just recently did I make the jump to 2560 by 1440. I am worried this resolution might be to demanding to keep the latest games running at max settings (excluding AA of course) at a steady 60fps. With games like Assassins Creed Unity, FarCry 4, Dragon Age, The Crew, etc coming out would it be wise for me to spend my money on this monitor? |

Lol by the time this got approved I already came to a decision. I went with buying the monitor. One major downside of the old 29 inch 21:9 monitor was when running at 1920 by 1080 the screen real estate was tiny as I mentioned above. Well after some digging around it turns out running at normal 1440p (16:9) the screen outputs to a size of 27 inches which is exactly what I am using right now so there is no downside to running at that res if my rig can't handle it. |

Sorry for the delay. I would have told you to pull the trigger. Glad you did. I'm hoping to get one soon myself. |

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully if all goes well I should have mine before the end of this month. Really excited! |
