Anyone gone from superwide monitor to 4k smaller monitor

[bakes0310]

Bit of a dilemma I currently have a superwide monitor but it's on its way out so need to to get a new monitor. I am wondering if I should get another superwide or go 4k.
All I do is game on the pc and do some studying. I will be getting an Xbox series x that could go with the 4k monitor as it doesn't support superwide but am I better off just using my Xbox on my lounge TV that's 4k 55inchs. Also my pc is a bit old to be running games at 4k on a 6700k and 1080 graphics card.

My budget is £850 and I see I can get a 4k 32" gigabyte monitor with hdmi2.1 which would be good for the Xbox. I have a man cave and my partner would happier to have all my gaming devices in there so she can hog the TV.

Or hardware unboxed recommend this monitor but it's £50 over my budget but my partner will pay the £50 to get me to have my gaming systems in the mancave.

I do plan on getting a new gaming system next year which should cope well with a demanding resolution. In the meantime I'm happy to dial settings Down for now.

M32U is same monitor, but without gamer gimmicks.
Gigabyte 32" M32U 3840x2160 4K SS IPS 144Hz 1ms FreeSync/G-Sync KVM HDR Widescreen Gaming Monitor (SKU: MO-00Q-GI) = £719.99
Response times are good, but colour gamut is mediocre falling clearly short of DCI-P3
And HDMI 2.1 is half assed with only 24 Gbps capability and needing DSC or very lossy chroma subsampling for above 60Hz 4K.

That MSI again has very wide also AdobeRGB covering gamut with more purer greens/cyan than in DCI-P3.
That gives very vibrant colours in games depicting nature. (grass/foliage, sky, water, etc)
Also HDMI 2.1 is true 48 Gbps port instead of half.
But response times of that panel aren't exactly great, if you're after fast paced gaming.

Great reply very informative. I don't play any fast paced games like COD I'm more into story driven games like RPGs and third person games.
