I think the one you're thinking of is the LG 34UM95

would really like that LG linus has but

2560x1600 barely  run games at native on current gen cards

so i guess ill stick with 2560xXXXX screens

i would still go 4k over 21:9, just because linus likes it doesnt mean others should too

i like it, because im a huge multi monitor fan but this is a better solution

 

21:9 is the format that cinema theaters are like, alot wider

in  cases like that i completely understand, but its that every person that watches linus suddenly wants a 21:9 monitor

If you spend 50% or more doing productivity, 16/9

If you spend 50% or more doing video/gaming, 21/9

Depending on what you do, is what decides what you buy...

NO! please of the love of god NO! 21:9 IS MADE FOR PRODUCTIVITY!!!! NOT GAMING! its just good at that too, all the companies are advertising it for Profesionals, not for gamers....

I was only considering this because it was 3440x1440 not 2560x1080 and it would be great for truck simulator etc then i remembered about oculus and other vr then was like screw that getting 2 4k monitors and an oculus(or whatever is best when vr takes off) no idea why linus likes this over 4k for anything 4k is amazing for productivity.

I don't care about black bars either side of the 16/9 aspect on the 21/9 panel.

Others will however... but not me.
