Looking for Ultrawide, >143PPI monitor

[Shoshin Sam]

I know 32:9 is out of bounds for the >143PPI clarity I seek. So, are there 21:9 monitors with that or better PPI? I realise I am asking for 4K's PPI in a 21:9 aspect ratio. But, is there something?

I know I will be stuck with 60Hz, but I am not looking for competitive gaming. I still have to decide on my GPU between 2080 and 2080TI.

LG has 4k and 5k ultrawides, do those have the sufficient PPI?

For example: https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-34WK95U-W-ultrawide-monitor

Just curious why you need a PPI that dense?

 

If you do go with one, it's the 2080Ti for it then.

Because that makes it "retina" at 2' distances for a 20/20 eyesight, and I can't stand to see anti-aliased text. I need a lot of screen real estate for my work involves a lot of referencing back and forth. I am also frigging used to Mac Pro displays and don't want to feel disappointed with my new PC build and monitor.

Thanks, Origami.  Looks like might work, but interested to know if there's anything more, maybe from Samsung if anyone knows?

Oh then since you're used to MacBooks, you don't need a 2080Ti.  Sounds like you're not going to use the GPU for much, if you haven't before?

Samsung doesn' seem to have, i know that there should be some 3840x1600 100hz gaming monitors, but lower res, higher cost.

 

LG makes great monitors, and that monitor is even IPS, so great viewing angles, samsung monitors are usually VA.

 

You can check here to see if any monitor has come out/will come out this year:

Lol okay. I use quite a bit of AutoCAD, and Sketchup (and hence the ray-tracing cores for future). Like I said, no competitive gaming. You are right, Nvidia says RTX2080 can display 8K. But I will be using this for a lot of Adobe illustrator work too, and a few other graphic intensive works. Probably will have AutoCAD, Sketchup and Illustrator open at the same time.

Thanks again, OC. Yeah I did see that before. Lol, none of them meet the PPI requirement including the CRG9 which works out to around 108PPI?

Yeah if ultrawide wasn't a requirement there would be much more options, including 8K monitors, but afaik the LG 5k is the only ultrawide with that resolution?

 

I haven't calculated PPI before, so idk. I just use a 27inch UHD monitor, and it is high enough.

Yeah, but after a certain height of the monitor, it doesn't make sense for me to have more space vertically. I need space horizontally. Maybe, a pin-up board or a marker board is some kind of analogy? But the digital kind.

I know that almost all professionals have 2 monitors, and i can see that being handy too.

Photoshop open in one monitor, source image on the other one?

Imagine 2x 8k monitors. 

 

But ultrawide has it's own plusses too, so im hoping you can find the monitor you are looking for, the only current option is the expensive LG one, but maybe samsung comes out with one in the future? Maybe a DELL one already exists? idk
