Ultrawide gaming

So i wanna go ultrawide.

preferably 21:9 1400p (curved would be nice but not essential)

i really dont mind about the Hz so i can settle for 60-75.

what are the best options for this?

 

not heard much about the samsung 

S34E790C

 

and i dont really want to wait till august for the predator.

All the 21:9 monitors that are currently out (that I know of) are either insanely expensive or have very bad backlight bleeding.

what are your thoughts so far ? 

Amazing for everything but gaming. I mean if you wanna game seriously you are gonna want a 144hz monitor so I recommend the ROG Swift. But if you need it for productivity it cant be beat. I currently have 2 media players and chrome open on the screen and they are all usable :)
