I need an ultrawide monitor mounted above my current monitors for a sweet three monitor setup.
Currently I have two 27" monitors (Black Friday FTW!) but apparently in this fast-paced Capitalist utopia, that isn’t enough. The 32-33" span of a 21:9 ultrawide monitor will fit perfectly above my two monitors.

You’re gonna love those ultra-wide ratio cat videos.

Just bite the bullet and achieve final form

MMMMM DAT 4:3 ASPECT RATIO

But as a whole, that’s 8:3, which is kinda weird.

I love these, but can’t justify them most of the time.
Also: Modern, large, 4K and near-4K monitors are getting reasonably cheap now, so the display arrays are not as necessary. I still run a three-1K/FHD monitor setup on my desk at work, but that’s because they don’t want to spend any money they don’t have to.

probably better resolution than reality

That’s very true. It looks more badass than it actually is.

Final form involves a bunch of crappy old 17" (or maybe 19"?) 1280x1024 displays? I think I’ll pass.

Those are probably 5:4?
![]() 05/09/2017 at 12:34 |

And probably actually 5:2?

Yep, this six 4K screen setup is clearly what you want:

Two weeks ago I picked up this LG 29" that Best buy had on sale for $250. With a 10% coupon I got it for $225. The following week when I saw it for $350, I was like:

Oppo=off topic blog. That’s on topic a lot of the time. Though who is to say what the topic is now that we no longer have jalopnik in the URL.

Look smallish to me, but there’s not much there for scale.

Just make sure it’s 3440 x 1440. Some companies actually sell 34" Ultrawide monitors but with a pathetic 2560 x 1080 resolution.

No idea. I grabbed a sales photo, and those are notoriously over used for disparate things.

I’ve been using an ultrawide for a year and a half in my personal setup.
If space is at a premium, I think that’s the way to go since you can get really wide screen gaming done without a multi monitor setup.
Multiple windows also works really well with an ultrawide, but some games wont support it without mods *cough* Fallout 4 *cough*.

Curved 34" @ 3440x1440.
