You just sold one...Stop being a diva

 

[easyrider]

No, 2100Mhz clocks.

You are so going to buy one....lol

Of course

 

[easyrider]

Of course

you sell your current GFX system?

 

[eazyrider]

The real question is how long will the aftermarket coolers take to release to the market, and how high can clocks go with water???

 

[Gregster]

No, I missed the boat on selling my TX and will now use it to run some side by side comparison vids and see/show what is what between the two.

Back to 4k (XB321HK)

Sorry mate, superwide and curved is King

 

[Born_2_Kill_83]

Agree'd, but 4k owners don't know it yet.

When you've got both then come back and give your opinion

Good job I have

I would take super wide 100hz over 4K.

But I would also take 16:9 144hz over superwide.

100hz is my limit with a mouse, anything under and no thanks. 144hz is just pure butter.

Nah. Tried both and 4K is where it's at. Just ask Kaapstad, nothing like 4K sharp graphics.

Problem with ultra wide is, majority of the games out there you need to mess about to get them to work and even then some don't, as you get dodgy ui. Even some new games people get disappointed as it is not supported straight away.

It seems to me 4K monitors will take of in the next few years. Ultra wide will just continue to be a niche market. But I do hope going forward all games support it. More choice the better.

Superwide all day for gaming. Had superwide, went 4K, went back to superwide.

Admittedly if I used my PC for any serious desktop work, it would have been a harder decision and ultimately I would have liked to have been able to afford to keep both

 

[JediFragger]

Good job I have

Wasn't aimed at you dude, I know you have

Each to their own I suppose. I just can't get over the pure IQ of the 4k panel tbh, and I'm willing to sacrifice a few mhz for the time being (then it's a DP 1.4 120Mhz 4k HDR screen next year, or its UW buddy )

Not bothered about 4k. Had a 40" 4k, just changed to super-wide 3440x1440 gsync 100hz...and I've not looked back. Same pixel pitch as 40" 4k, easier to drive, better for games and productivity.

I know that you know that I knew you knew.

Tempted for a bigger desk to run both.

Or give surround another whirl
