Poll: Poll : Have you gone Superwide?

[easyrider]

Yes : And I could never go back

Yes : But I miss my 16.9 setup

No : I'm happy with current setup

No : But Superwide will be my next upgrade path.

Unsure : I'm just a drama queen and can't make my mind up.

Added as a poll for you but also added an extra option. I run NVSurround with 3 x 22" 16:9 screens so superwide would be a downgrade as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks mate

What about the black bars ?

 

[easyrider]

I love my superwide monitor. Is amazing for most games with the exception of Dota2, where the HUD gets in the way because they havent bothered making the game fit ultrawide yet

34" ?

I absolutely love my superwide. I was initially a bit apprehensive about the curve however I barely notice it. The aspect ratio and size work perfectly for me. The workspace is great and the immersion in games is better. I've got absolutely no complaints about the aspect ratio, resolution or monitor choice. It's pleasing to sit in front of and the feeling hasn't worn off after a few months with it. I have no desire to return to 16:9 at all.[/QUOTE]

I'm thinking I might miss two x 16.9 though...

Thinking of getting two Dell U2715H...instead of one U3415w

Two will completely fill the top of the Fredde idea desk.

That sammy looks the nuts

 

[easyrider]

Needs a 'Yes : And I went back to 16:9 and couldn't be happier' option.

why did you go back?

 

[easyrider]

And yes definitely needs the 'Yes : And I went back to 16:9 and couldn't be happier' option as that is what I would have chosen.[/QUOTE]

 

[easyrider]

Requested that option for you CF

 

[easyrider]

Upgraded in resolution, from 1080p superwide to 1440p 16:9 and found I wasn't actually missing the extra horizontal space.

I see...I would never go 1080p super wide....

 

[easyrider]

Isn't 4k to tiny in windoze?

 

[easyrider]

depends on the display size. 34" ultrawide vs 40" 4k, pixels are about the same size, 110 pixels per inch more or less.

40" Monitor is just to big to be sat in front of on a desk IMO.

 

[easyrider]

What's best recommended ultra wide for fps gaming with nvidia cards? Or are they all about the same currently?

Pretty much all the same 60hz...the dell u34 gets favourable reviews...I just can't decide what direction to go in...2 x 1440p or 1x 34" SUPERWIDE...

or get 1 x 1440p dell u27 for video editing and real estate alongside a 27 " 1080p 144hz for gaming

34 will require a 980ti and I just don play enough hours to warrant the outlay...but the u34 would be great for Adobe suite.

 

[easyrider]

Nope I'm happy gaming at 1440p 144hz.

Rog ?

 

[easyrider]

Interesting 3 people miss the 16:9 ratio

 

[easyrider]

Yes: But also run 16:9 monitors along side... (should have been an option)

Can you post a pic of your setup mate?

 

[easyrider]

I'm so close to buying the Dell U3415W I need convincing

 

[easyrider]

I'm just worried I'm losing desktop not having 2 X Dell U2715H at just 100 quid more....

 

[easyrider]

GoRedwings19 looks amazing mate

 

[easyrider]

Yup, looks great GoRedwings19!! What is that plane game m8? Picked up an X52 and wouldn't mind giving it a workout

X52?

 

[easyrider]

Looks good apart from the stand...
