Hi,



I have a Gigabyte M32U 4K monitor as my main monitor, it is 32 inch and has 144hz, IPS panel.



I want to buy an OLED Monitor for exclusive usage for consuming media and video games, all of my productivity work will be done on my M32U.



Now I never had an ultrawide monitor so I never tried it and I don’t know what to expect



I was torn between getting a normal 16:9 OLED monitor from the new offering such as Asus or Gigabyte 240hz OLED’s, or instead going for Ultrawide 21:9 for gaming as I already have a regular 4K monitor and feel I might enjoying the new resolution,



So what I’m trying to ask here is, if you were in my position which route will you go ?



Ultrawide OLED “specifically Model: AW3423DWF”



Or regular 16:9 4K OLED “ more specifically Asus PG32UCDM or Gigabyte FO32U2P”



I want to try ultrawide but I’m afraid it will not suit my taste and I will regret it, I also live in an area where second hand market is dead and most likely I wouldn’t be able to get rid of the monitor for a good price in case I don’t get used to it, we also do not have return policy where I live so what you buy is permanent.



On the other hand I feel ultrawide might be actually amazing and more suitable for gaming than regular resolution..



For what it is worth I have 7800X3D and Gigabyte 4090 so performance is not an issue here. And I usually play story driven games, I’m not a competitive player or 1st person shooter type of guy, I prefer RPG and triple A titles most


Thank you,
