Questions on ultrawide monitors

Maill

Hello, I plan to buy an ultrawide monitor (Samsung lc49rg90ssnxza), and I have few questions before :

  • Is it comfortable in comparison with 2 (good) screens ?
  • Can you tell a game to take, for example, only the half of the screen instead of the full screen.
  • In the case of the Samsung, the Picture by Picture mode permit to emulate 2 screens, but Freesync will drop, does a software exists that kinda emulate 2 screens or tell a program to take only that space in the screen ? I don't wanna drop Freesync support so I need alternatives.
  • Does Windows/Graphic Drivers know how to deal with ultrawide or do I need 3rd party programs ?

1. Yes

2. Depends what monitor you have, some have different functions that can do this. Otherwise some tweaking is needed via software

3. Can't answer this

4. Native drivers are good. It's just more pixels

I swear monitor alphabet soup is probably a secret language used by wizards.
