Red Dead Redemption 2 on a 32:9 ultrawide monitor

Post by FlyingPenguin »

Wow. Nice looking monitor.

Tempting, but I my 35" 3440x1440 does the job, and like he mentions in the article, most games put important HUD displays in the corners. Even on my 35" that can be a bit annoying at times. On something even wider, it would be a hassle.

Also a lot of pixels to push.

Still....

I'll stick with mine. Dell sent us their new wide screen which is like 49" (or close to that) and it's just massive. I wouldn't want to game on that. Too damn wide.

Yeah it might be time to upgrade my monitors. I have 2 old high end dells. One is a 19 that is vertical as second and primary is a 24. The 19 rolls the first minuet its on then is fine the 24 has a yellow vertical line to the right that shows for 5 minuets or so then goes away. They are both OLD displays with many hours on them. I cant complain about them they have been great.

I don't have the space for a monitor that wide. I'm still on a 24" 1080 right now. I've considered 4K but I'm not ready to invest in it. If the PS5 releases as promised and offers 4K Blu Ray Playback, I may finally spring for one.
