21:9 monitors!

[clamburger]

So i'm torn between two monitors and i can decide witch to get, perhaps some advice from forum! Right now i'm looking at the x34 predator and the z35 predator. The x34 is a 3440x1440p @ 100hz refresh(overclocked) and the z35 is 2560x1080 with a 200hz refresh(overclocked). I'm currently running 2 gtx 970 in sli. Thoughts?

I would go for the 1440p one.

At those sizes, you're going to want the highest resolution you can get.

I have 970 sli and 980 sli. For real estate I would definitely go 1440p.  But the 970s will not be able to keep 100 fps. But that's what gsync is for. If faster frames over 100.+ is what want go the 1080p.

 

my testing was done with pg278q and 3 1920x1080p.

 

i placed my pg278q on the 980 sli. And the 3 monitors on the 970s.

edit - 100-144 frames on the 980 sli 2560xf1440 

 

solid 60  frames on 970 sli  5760x1080

Is 1440p a HUGE difference from 1080p for gaming? Im wondering if the higher refresh rate is a better experience than the higher resolution

[mrchow19910319]

If you are using 2 970 in SLI mode, I suggest you go for 1440p.

I am using 1 single 780.

And witcher 3 and starcraft 2 looks amazing in 1440p compare to 1080p.

 

Ask the dude who has 2 970s whether it can keep the fps>60 when gaming on 1440p.

ya this is a tough choice, considering the price tags that come with these monitors haha

x34 is clearly the better Display.
