the R9 280X can support up to 21:9 res 3440x1440 monitor

 

but here is the bad news thou

 

the 280X is more of a 1080P GPU

 

any res that is beyond 1080P

from  $100-$600

For a GPU? Then go all out for a GTX 970

A close friend of mine, who has a 280X uses it on a 2560x1080 and maxes out 95% of games on it, while looking totally STUNNING.

He has the same monitor as I, an Asus MX299Q.
