Hi guys,

What are your opinions on changing between an 34" ultrawide 3440x1440 to a 32" 3840x2160 display?

I will be building a new rig with a 3080 this summer, so driving the 4K monitor in games won't be an issue. Appreciate that I would have to use at least 125% scaling for productivity with it though. I'm not worried about high refresh as I'm not an FPS gamer - just flight sims.

While I love my current monitor which I don't need to use scaling on, I would welcome the higher PPI on the 4k monitor. Although the ultrawide is wonderfully immersive in my flight sims.

Just after people's personal opinions.

Thank you.
 
Thanks for the replies all. Having researched a little more, I think the best option for me would be a 38" 3840x1600 curved ultrawide as I really love the format for both productivity and immersion. I think a 42-43" 4K may look like a TV on my desk!

However, I won't rush as it's more of a want than a need right now, maybe later in the year :p
