To be honest I'm just soooo confused at the moment, I'm not sure whether to get:
- A 4K monitor, knowing that the extra desktop space will be incredibly useful, yet resolving myself to running almost all my games in 1080P as it shouldn't affect quality too much and my PC won't handle 4K at playable frame-rates for the foreseeable future. Price wise these are reasonable, not too much for a 60Hz model
- A 2560x1440 monitor (probably a 32") as the size difference from my 24" 1080P will be nice, the resolution is probably okay for my PC currently and it's affordable so I can consider other options later in the not-too distant future.
- An ultra-wide 21:9, which I think I'd want a 32" also. It'd be more immersive, replace my current triple monitor setup most like-for-like but, will also cost nearly double the price, and games may / may-not run well with the slightly unusual aspect ratio & higher resolution.
The problem I have is having not even seen or tried either a 32" 1440P monitor or an ultra-wide, I really don't know which I'd prefer or get-along better with. The ultra-wide monitors seem really cool, but I worry they may just be a bit of a "fad" and support in games for the ultra-wide resolutions will never be mainstream.
I think I've narrowed it down between:

But which... No idea! Or is it worth waiting, as I hear there's a lot more monitors coming soon....
