Really need help with decisions

TheReven

So I'm used to gaming on my 42 inch tv but I recently bought a 29 inch utra widescreen which amazon messed up and sent me the 25 inch and then stopped selling the 29 (what a coincidence) So I used it for about 2 weeks and I really like it but it just doesn't feel big enough I have always wanted to have a tripple moinitor setup but never thought I would use it but I applied for a return on the monitor they are picking it up in the morning what do I do guys last chance keep the monitor and maybe get 2 23 inch moniotrs next to it or take my refund and save up for the big 34 inch 3440x1440 one ... HELP I CAN'T MAKE DECISIONS I love the monitor because of how wide it is but I dont know how much i would prefer triple

The ultra wide one looks really nice, certainly on my wish list.

I'd say get the one big screen, you can always add additional monitors later. My main is a 24" and i have my old 19" flat screen monitor as my secondary. I use it to watch stuff whilst i game.

Make sure you think this through very carefully man. No matter how tempting the LG is, there are still too many monitor setup options for gaming these days....
