Ultrawide monitor on a small desk?

Fluke · 16 Dec 2015 at 16:06

I am thinking of getting a 34" monitor to go with my new build, my problem is that I don't have a very big desk, it only has a depth of 50cm and is 105cm long.

I haven't made my mind up but its between the LG 34UC97C and the G-Sync enabled Predator X34". What sort of desk space do these things take up?

BTW - I am running 2x MSI 980Ti, so am hoping to make the most out of them.

The X34 stand is like 30cm deep and maybe 45cm wide? Guestimate from looking at mine.

The width would be fine, is the Predator wall mountable?

Honestly I found big monitors to be uncomfortable with small desks to the point that I now either sit away and play with a controller or play from bed. I know the attraction in wanting to go bigger but truth is it doesn't necessarily work out too well. That being said, it's easy enough to return it so just give it a go.
