Monitor advice

[Gregster6]

Team,

I have taking the plunge and replacing my trusty 2600k / 980 GTX PC with an 8700k / 1080 ti build. Current monitors are 2 x Dell 27"...one from 2007 and one from 2012.

I am keen to replace the monitors with a single ultra-wide 34" model and would appreciate some advice from people who have a better view of current offerings.

In addition to gaming the monitor will be used for standard office applications. I deal with big, complex spreadsheets, project plans and lots of presentations and schematic diagrams. Crisp (ie non-blurry) text and lines are important to me. Probably 70:30 split productivity:gaming.

I was ready to order Samsung C34F791 and then paused to check that there is nothing better for me out there.

I'm currently on a break between projects so am keen to get this sorted now rather than wait for something coming around the corner.

Is the Samsung C34F791 a good fit? Are there other better offerings for me out there?

Thanks

Greg

Not sure about others but here is a review for the monitor your looking at: https://pcmonitors.info/reviews/samsung-c34f791/

Thanks for that Robi.

In the end I decided to stick with dual monitors and am replacing the 2007 Dell with another Dell 27” IPS in the short-term.

Will have another look at what’s available in the autumn.
