Ive been gaming on a dell 16:10 1920x1200 27" monitor for a while now and i quite like the aspect ratio over 16:9, but i want to upgrade-i mean REALLY upgrade. i want to possibly have a setup of 3 2560x1600 monitors in surround (preferably between 27" and 24") because i feel like it would feel most comfortable setup for me. any suggestions on monitors i should use for this? i have a 1200$ budget for the three monitors. also bezels are not an issue for i plan to remove them all together to get the most seamless surround setup possible.

No, the acer x34 is better... will cost the same as that asus , but 100hz instead of 75hz.

 

Get that and you`ll be set for 7 years at least. Nothing will surpass it before new high bandwidth display cables or OLED appears... both are far away now.
