EDIT: A few days ago I bought a HP X34. It's a 3440x1440 ultrawide with 165Hz refresh rate. Obviously my setup can't hit constant 165fps in all games, but I'm comfortably getting 100+ in most games, 120+ in Forza Horizon 5 or Doom Eternal. Can't complain :)
I'm looking to buy a new monitor, making a switch from two 16:9 to a single 21:9. Everywhere I read the opinions are that on an ultra wide it doesn't make sense to go lower than 1440p, which I guess holds true for 34" monitors.
However, I'm worried my 3060 Ti won't be enough for that many pixels. Right now I'm enjoying uninterrupted framerates playing at 1920x1080.
How much should I really worry about making this switch? My other option is to go for a 2560x1080 monitor that's smaller (29").
Yeah, not sure which content creator it was, but they were saying they used to go ultra wide and instead it was recommended by like... Level1 techs or someone from Puget Systems to just go 4k. If I could recall the video I'd link it but sadly I cannot recall the origin, just the sentiment. Otherwise, I'd suggest personally if it's more for gaming than anything, unless you're building like a big rig, racing, flight sim, I'd personally say multiple monitors are just better (known compatibility, fewer mounting concerns, cheaper, etc.)
Appreciate the details. But I'm consciously giving up a dual monitor setup. I don't even use the second one anymore.
