Ultrawide upgrade from Asus PG279Q

Aa the title says, I'm looking to move into the ultra wide world. However the features of the current monitor are crucial to me.

IPS, response time, gsync, 144hz. I could probably settle for 120hz though.

Is there anything out there? Last time I looked the LG brand had something out but after looking into it, it has terrible grey uniformity and was only really suitable for playing in bright rooms.

I was in same position as you, I went for the aw3420dw has all your asking for except its 120hz. Its coming in a couple of hours hopefully it's good.

What is your budget? And are you looking for 21:9 or 32:9?

AW3420DW if you don't wanna go nuts (like me!), seems a good buy atm

This is the one I'm going for:
Samsung LC49HG90DMUXEN 49"

I should have stated, a 'normal' size monitor, no bigger than 34", maybe 35". 49" is more a small TV for a desk monitor in my opinion.

Not really got a budget, 21:9 seems to be the more supported so that's what I'm going for.
